Why have the prices been reduced for the Hyundai Exter?

The price drop is a direct result of the government’s GST 2.0 reforms. Previously, small cars under 4 metres with petrol engines up to 1.2 litres and CNG models attracted 28% GST + 1% cess = 29% total tax. With the revised GST policy, these vehicles are taxed at a flat 18% GST, making them more affordable.
