The new prices will become effective on September 22, the date the revised GST rates come into effect.
"We sincerely appreciate the progressive and far-sighted move by the government of India to reduce GST on PVs. This reform is not only a boost to the automotive industry but also a strong step towards empowering millions of customers by making personal mobility more affordable and accessible," said Unsoo Kim, Managing Director, Hyundai Motor India.
