The MG Astor is one of the most stylish mid-size SUVs in India. It is known for its premium interiors, strong feature list, and advanced safety package. With its 1.5-litre petrol engine and modern design, the Astor appeals to customers looking for a balance of sophistication and everyday usability. Positioned against rivals like the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, and Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara, the Astor has steadily built a reputation in the competitive SUV market.

The rollout of GST 2.0 from September 22, 2025, has brought a simplified taxation system for cars in India. For models like the Astor over 4 metres long and powered by a 1.5-litre petrol engine the earlier tax structure imposed 28% GST plus 17% cess (45% total). Under the revised rules, the cess has been removed and replaced with a flat 40% GST.

This change results in a price drop, making the Astor slightly more affordable and further strengthening its value proposition in the mid-size SUV space.

Why have the prices been reduced for the MG Astor?

The price cut for the Astor is a direct result of GST 2.0, which simplifies India’s automobile tax structure. The SUV previously attracted a 45% effective tax (28% GST + 17% cess). Now, the new regime applies a flat 40% GST across all variants, eliminating cess and making prices easier to understand for buyers.
