Royal Enfield announced that it would revise prices across its 350cc portfolio, which includes the Classic 350 and the Hunter 350, effective September 22.

Mid-size motorcycle maker Royal Enfield on Tuesday said it will pass on the entire benefit of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) reduction on two-wheelers to its customers, making its popular 350cc range more affordable by up to ₹22,000.

The GST Council recently approved the proposal to move the two-wheelers up to 350cc from 28% to 18% slab.

Days after the approval, Royal Enfield announced that it would revise prices across its 350cc portfolio, which includes the Classic 350 and the Hunter 350, effective September 22.

According to a price analysis, the entry-level Hunter 350 Standard variant, earlier priced at Rs 1,49,900 (ex-showroom), will now cost around Rs 1,38,200, translating into a saving of nearly ₹11,700.

The mid variant will see a reduction of about ₹13,800, while the top variant will become cheaper by roughly ₹14,100.

Similarly, the Classic 350 range will also see significant price cuts.

The Redditch edition, which carries an ex-showroom tag of ₹1,97,253, will be available at around ₹1,81,800.

The top-end Chrome variant, earlier priced at ₹2,34,972, will be cheaper by more than ₹18,000, bringing its new price close to ₹2,16,600.

The motorcycles with new pricing will be available to customers starting September 22, 2025.

“The Government of India’s latest GST reform will not only make motorcycles under 350cc more accessible but will also excite the first-time buyers. Royal Enfield is delighted to announce that we are passing the full GST benefit of the price revision directly to our consumers, opening the world of Royal Enfield to an even larger community of riders,” said B Govindarajan, MD – Eicher Motors and CEO – Royal Enfield.

The company said the move reflects its commitment to making Royal Enfield motorcycles more accessible while strengthening the 350cc segment, which it described as the backbone of India’s mid-size motorcycle market.

The Chennai-based firm added that prices of motorcycles above 350cc will also be revised as per the new GST rates.
