Maruti Suzuki has cut ex-showroom prices across its Arena lineup by up to ₹1.29 lakh, passing on GST 2.0 tax benefits to customers effective September 22, 2025. The change matters because entry and compact models such as S-Presso, Alto K10, Swift, Dzire, and Brezza now open at lower price points, improving affordability ahead of the festive cycle and potentially lifting demand in key segments.

What to expect at dealerships
Dealers will update billing and display boards from Sept 22 onwards, variant specific reductions will differ by trim and powertrain so customers should verify the exact ex-showroom price for their configuration before booking as per national reporting and OEM guidelines. The pricing is in line with the overall festive push and could have additional showroom offers on top of GST reductions, but any stackable offers should be confirmed locally to avoid assumptions.
Closing note
