Intro

Jawa Motorcycles just got easier on the wallet. With GST on sub-350cc two-wheelers cut from 28% to 18%, Classic Legends has rolled out revised ex-showroom prices across the Jawa range. Why it matters: most Jawa buyers shop in the value band, and the brand says the full tax benefit is now baked into sticker prices.

What changed with GST

The new slab pulls sub-350cc bikes into the 18% bracket, leaving larger-capacity models in higher tiers. In practical terms, it lowers the upfront cost where volumes are highest – commuter-plus and entry-premium riders. For Jawa, whose core models slot under 350cc, this shift lands right where demand lives.

New Jawa prices and savings

Expect reductions in the ballpark of ₹13,000 to ₹16,900 depending on the model and variant. Indicative tags now place the Jawa 42 around the mid–₹1.5 lakh range, the Jawa 350 in the ₹1.8 lakh bracket, and the 42 Bobber and Perak brushing ₹2 lakh while generally staying just below that psychological barrier. In short, the full lineup looks sharper without touching mechanicals.

Why buyers benefit

Lower ex-showroom prices ripple through EMIs and on-road costs, making upgrades easier and accessories more tempting. It also opens the door for riders who were price-capped just above this segment to step into a Jawa without stretching monthly budgets.

Engines and positioning

The portfolio carries on with the familiar 293cc and 334cc liquid-cooled setups, aimed at relaxed torque and everyday flexibility. Output remains in the same window – enough for city pace with weekend legs – so the headline change is value, not character.

Closing note

With taxes trimmed and prices reworked, Jawa has timed this well for the festive run-up. If the brief is classic styling, approachable performance, and saner EMIs, this update makes the case stronger.
