Eicher Motors Arm to Pass On GST Rate Cut to Customers, Effective September 22

Eicher Motors’ subsidiary, VE Commercial Vehicles Ltd (VECV), announced it will pass on the full impact of the recent Goods and Services Tax (GST) cut to customers across its range of trucks and buses. The new prices will take effect from September 22, 2025.

On September 3, 2025, the GST Council reduced the rate on diesel, CNG, and LNG commercial vehicles from 28% to 18%. Electric trucks and buses in the VECV range will continue under the 5% GST rate.

Price Reductions

The revised tax structure will lower acquisition costs for buyers. According to VECV, the reduction will vary by category:

• LMD trucks: ₹1-2 lakh
• HD trucks: ₹1.5-6 lakh
• Buses: ₹1.1-3.4 lakh

The changes are expected to ease operating costs for transporters and encourage the replacement of older fleets.

Industry Context 

Other automakers have also announced similar measures. Hyundai and Tata Motors confirmed they will extend the full GST benefit to buyers starting September 22, 2025, while Mahindra & Mahindra revised prices earlier this month.

Royal Enfield, another Eicher Motors brand, has cut prices on its 350cc motorcycle range by up to ₹22,000, as per the news reports. The revised pricing, which also covers service, apparel, and accessories, will be effective from September 22, 2025.

Eicher Motors Share Price Performance

As of September 11, 2025, at 09:50 AM, the Eicher Motors share price was trading at ₹6,796, representing a 0.59% decrease from the previous closing price.
