The Hyundai Creta is one of the most popular SUVs in India and is often regarded as the benchmark in the mid-size SUV segment. Known for its bold design, feature-rich cabin, and choice of petrol and diesel engines, the Creta has consistently dominated sales charts since its launch. Competing with the Kia Seltos, Honda Elevate, Maruti Grand Vitara, and Toyota Hyryder, the Creta’s mix of performance, comfort, and technology makes it a top choice among Indian buyers.

Now, the Creta is set to become more attractive with the rollout of the GST 2.0 reforms, effective from September 22, 2025. The government has rationalised the tax structure by eliminating the cess system and moving to a uniform GST framework.

At present, SUVs like the Creta (over 4 metres in length and powered by 1.5-litre petrol and diesel engines) are taxed at 28% GST plus 17% cess, totalling 45%. With the new GST 2.0 rules, the total tax will reduce to a flat 40% GST rate, lowering the ex-showroom prices across the Creta line-up.

Why have the prices been reduced for the Hyundai Creta?

The reduction in Creta’s prices is the result of the GST 2.0 tax reforms, which simplify automobile taxation by removing cess and introducing uniform tax rates.

Previously: 28% GST + 17% cess = 45%
Now: Flat 40% GST (no cess)

Category	Old GST	Old Cess	Old Total Tax	New GST	New Total Tax	Change in Tax
Mid-size cars (up to 1,500cc)	28%	17%	45%	40%	40%	5% lower than before

This brings transparency to pricing and ensures direct savings for buyers.

When are the new rates applicable?

The new GST rates for the Hyundai Creta come into effect from September 22, 2025. Any unit invoiced or delivered on or after this date will carry the revised ex-showroom pricing.

If you have been planning to get the Hyundai Creta, this is the right time to buy. Thanks to the GST cut, you can save up to ₹70,000, depending on the variant you choose.

Disclaimer: The new prices mentioned in this article are tentative and based on the revised GST rates applicable from 22 September 2025. Final ex-showroom prices may vary slightly as manufacturers and dealerships update their pricing structures in line with the new taxation policy.
