The petrol variants form the core of the S-Presso line-up. With multiple trims ranging from the base model (STD (O)) to the top-end (VXi+ (O) AGS) variants, buyers now benefit from lower ex-showroom prices thanks to the GST revision.
S-Presso Variant | Old Price (Ex-showroom) | New Price (Ex-showroom) | Reduction | Reduction (%) |

Maruti Suzuki S-Presso (CNG Variants) New Prices after GST Cut
Maruti Suzuki also offers the S-Presso with a factory-fitted CNG kit, catering to budget-conscious urban buyers who prioritise running cost savings. Already one of the most economical hatchbacks in terms of daily fuel expenses, the CNG version now becomes more attractive with reduced upfront pricing.
S-Presso Variant | Old Price (Ex-showroom) | New Price (Ex-showroom) | Reduction | Reduction (%) |
|---|
LXi (O) CNG 1L 5MT | ₹5,91,500 | ₹5,41,062 | ₹50,438 | 8.53 |
VXi (O) CNG 1L 5MT | ₹6,11,500 | ₹5,59,357 | ₹52,143 | 8.53 |
The CNG variants are particularly appealing to those who drive extensively within the city. They combine low operating costs with the S-Presso’s compact yet practical design.
Why have the prices been reduced for the Maruti Suzuki S-Presso?
The price reduction stems from the government’s decision to make small cars more affordable. Previously, cars like the S-Presso attracted a 28% GST rate plus a cess, which increased the overall ex-showroom cost.
Under the new GST rate, small petrol cars with engine capacities under 1.2 litres and lengths under 4 metres (such as the S-Presso) now attract a flat 18% GST with no cess.
Category | Old GST | Old Cess | Old Total Tax | New GST | New Total Tax | Change in Tax |
|---|
Small cars (under 4m, ≤1,200cc petrol) | 28% | 1% | 29% | 18% | 18% | 11% lower than before |
This move is aimed at revitalising the small car segment, which has seen a slowdown in recent years due to rising costs and shifting consumer preferences toward SUVs. By reducing prices, the government hopes to encourage first-time buyers and strengthen demand for budget-friendly models.
When are the new rates applicable?
The revised GST rates for small cars are applicable from 22 September 2025. From this date onwards, all invoices raised by dealerships will reflect the updated ex-showroom prices.
If you are considering buying the Maruti S-Presso, purchasing after this date ensures that you will benefit from the reduced tax burden and lower overall cost of ownership. Depending on the Maruti S-Presso variant you choose, you can save up to ₹52,000; thanks to the new GST 2.0.
