The Maruti Suzuki Dzire has been India’s best-selling compact sedan for years, offering buyers a blend of practicality, efficiency, and affordability. Built on the same platform as the Swift, the Dzire adds the extra boot space and comfort that many families look for, without straying far from the affordability and efficiency of a hatchback.

With its refined 1.2-litre petrol engine, strong fuel efficiency figures, and Maruti’s reputation for low maintenance costs, the Dzire remains the go-to choice for buyers in the compact sedan segment.

Now, the Dzire has become even more appealing thanks to the government’s recent revision of the Goods and Services Tax (GST). Effective September 22, 2025, the GST applicable to small cars—vehicles under 4 metres in length with petrol/CNG engines up to 1.2 litres—has been reduced from 28% plus cess to a flat 18% with no cess.

This tax revision has translated into a notable reduction in ex-showroom prices across the Dzire’s entire variant line-up.

This price cut makes the Dzire even more value-for-money compared to rivals like the Hyundai Aura, Honda Amaze, and Tata Tigor.

Maruti Suzuki Dzire (CNG Variants) New Prices after the GST Cut

The Maruti Dzire is also offered with a factory-fitted CNG kit, giving buyers a greener and more economical alternative. The Dzire CNG has gained popularity among high-mileage users, fleet operators, and eco-conscious families.

Under the revised GST structure, the Dzire's CNG trims have also seen a price drop, making the sedan’s CNG option even more affordable.

Dzire Variant	Old Price (Ex-showroom)	New Price (Ex-showroom)	Reduction	Reduction (%)
TOUR S CNG 1.2L 5MT	₹7,77,001	₹7,10,745	₹66,256	8.53
VXI CNG 1.2L 5MT	₹8,79,000	₹8,04,047	₹74,953	8.53
ZXI CNG 1.2L 5MT	₹9,89,000	₹9,04,667	₹84,333	8.53

This strengthens the Dzire’s position as one of the most versatile offerings in the compact sedan segment.

Why have the prices been reduced for the Maruti Suzuki Dzire?

The reduction is a direct outcome of the government’s decision to rationalise GST rates on small cars. Earlier, compact cars like the Dzire were taxed at 28% GST plus cess, which inflated their ex-showroom prices.

With the implementation of GST 2.0, these cars are taxed at a flat 18% with no cess, bringing substantial relief to buyers.

Category	Old GST	Old Cess	Old Total Tax	New GST	New Total Tax	Change in Tax
Small cars (under 4m, ≤1,200cc petrol/CNG)	28%	1%	29%	18%	18%	11% lower than before

This policy change aims to make entry-level and compact cars more affordable, reviving demand in a segment that has been under pressure due to rising costs in recent years.

When are the new rates applicable?

The revised GST structure is applicable from September 22, 2025. Buyers purchasing or taking delivery of a Maruti Suzuki Dzire after this date will benefit from the reduced ex-showroom prices.

The Maruti Dzire has been a compelling option in the compact sedan segment. Now, with the price drop, you can get a price reduction of up to ₹86,000, depending on the variant.

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.
