Mahindra & Mahindra has announced revised prices across its SUV lineup, passing on the full benefits of the recently introduced GST 2.0 reforms. The price cuts, effective from September 6, 2025, apply to all internal combustion engine (ICE) SUVs in the company’s portfolio.
The move follows the 56th GST Council meeting chaired by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, where the new tax structure was approved.

Among Mahindra’s models, the XUV3XO diesel variant receives the steepest reduction, with prices dropping by up to ₹1.56 lakh. The Thar 2WD and 4WD trims also see significant cuts of ₹1.35 lakh and ₹1.01 lakh, respectively, making the brand’s popular off-roader more affordable.
The Scorpio-N benefits from a lower GST rate — reduced from 48% to 40% — bringing down its price by as much as ₹1.45 lakh.
