In a regulatory filing, the automaker further stated that the extent of the price increase is up to a maximum of ₹12,800 and will vary depending on the model and variant.

The Haryana-based firm added that the price hike comes in the face of prevailing market conditions, and the decision to increase prices was made to ensure a “balanced approach towards customer interest”.

The price increase, according to the auto manufacturer, has been necessitated due to rising input costs, increased commodity prices and higher operational expenses, among other reasons.

“While the company continuously strives to optimise costs and minimise the impact on its customers, it is constrained to pass on some of the increased costs to the market through this nominal price increase,” it noted.

In a separate regulatory filing dated April 8, the company had announced its plans to increase the prices of its cars by up to 1% across the portfolio, effective May 2026.

“The price revision is attributed to a combination of various cost escalations. The quantum of increase will vary basis the variants and models,” Hyundai Motor India had said.

While it will always endeavour to absorb rising costs to safeguard its customers from price fluctuations, the escalating input costs have necessitated passing on a part of this impact through a marginal price revision, it had stated.
