Tata Motors to hike prices of its commercial vehicles from October 1

Tata Motors on Tuesday announced that it will increase the price of its commercial vehicle range with effect from October 1, 2021. The effective price hike, in the range of 2 per cent, will be implemented based on the model and the variant of the vehicle.

The decision has been taken by the company considering the price rise of the commodities like steel, metals etc.

"The continued rise in the cost of commodities, such as steel and precious metals, necessitates the company to pass on a part of it through increase in price of the products," the company said in a statement.
