Mahindra & Mahindra Passes On Full GST Benefits, Making Its Entire SUV Lineup More Affordable
In a bold move that positions it as one of the first automakers to act, Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd. (M&M) has announced it will pass on the full benefits of the GST 2.0 reforms to its customers across its entire Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) SUV portfolio. This initiative, which took effect immediately on September 6, 2025, makes Mahindra SUVs more accessible to a wider audience.
The price reductions follow the recent 56th GST Council meeting, which rationalized the tax structure on vehicles. The benefits vary by model and variant, with cuts of up to ₹1.56 lakh on the XUV3XO.
New GST Rates and Their Impact on Mahindra SUVs
The GST 2.0 reforms have created a new tax structure for vehicles. For smaller cars (those with petrol engines up to 1200cc and diesel engines up to 1500cc, under 4 meters in length), the GST has been reduced from 28% to a new 18% slab. Larger vehicles, including SUVs, which were previously taxed at a total rate of up to 50% (28% GST + a cess of up to 22%), now have a simplified, flat 40% GST with no additional cess. This change results in a significant net price reduction for many of Mahindra’s top-selling models.
