Tata Motors, India’s largest commercial vehicle manufacturer, on Thursday announced that it will increase the price of its commercial vehicles effective 1st April 2024, up to 2 per cent, the company announced through an exchange filing.
The price increase is to offset the residual impact of the past input costs. While the price increase will vary as per individual model and variant, it will be applicable across the entire range of commercial vehicles.
