JSW MG Motor India has announced an increase in the prices of its cars by up to 2 percent from April 2026. The company has clearly stated that this price hike is being done to partially mitigate the impact of the continuous increase in input costs. In the official statement released on March 30, 2026, JSW MG Motor India said that this price hike will be effective from April 1, 2026.
This increase will be applicable to the company's mainstream portfolio, which includes petrol, diesel and electric vehicles. However, prices of premium MG Select models like the MG Cyberster sportscar and the MG M9 luxury MPV are likely to remain the same. These models are sold through exclusive MG Select outlets and their prices will remain unchanged.
Why are prices increasing?
According to the company's statement, this price update is being done with the aim of partially offsetting the impact of continuously increasing input and production costs. In the automobile sector, the prices of steel, battery material, electronic components and other raw materials have been rising for some time. Global supply chain challenges, inflation and dependence on imported parts are the main reasons for increasing these costs. To avoid these pressures the company is taking these steps.
Petrol, diesel and EV included
This price increase will affect different models and variants differently. For example, the company's popular models include MG Hector, MG Astor, MG Gloster (soon to be replaced by Majestor), MG ZS EV, MG Comet EV and the best-selling MG Windsor EV. Windsor EV has recently become quite popular in the EV segment and its price may also increase by up to 2 percent. Customers are advised to contact the nearest MG dealership or check the company's official website for exact model-specific price updates.
everyone is increasing the price
Such small but regular price increases have become common for companies. Earlier in March 2026 itself, other companies like Tata Motors, BMW, Mercedes-Benz had also announced price hike from April. This trend shows that cost pressure is uniform across the sector. JSW MG Motor India is currently trying to strengthen its hold in the Indian market. After the participation of JSW Group, the company has focused on increasing production capacity, relying more on local components and accelerating the EV transition.
This news is a bit disappointing from the customers' point of view, especially for those who were planning to buy an EV. Models like MG Windsor EV and ZS EV are already being liked due to their attractive features, good range and competitive pricing. An increase of 2 percent can lead to an average additional expenditure of Rs 30 to 40 thousand, which is significant in the mid-size SUV or EV segment.
