Revised Tax Structure Forces Isuzu To Increase Prices By Up To 5 Percent

Isuzu India announced that they have revised the prices of some of their products by 2 to 5 percent. The models affected by this revision of prices are the MU-X and the D-MAX V-Cross. Just a few days ago, the government had announced a 2 percent cess increase on cars exceeding four meters of length, and with an engine capacity above 1200cc (petrol), 1500cc (diesel), bringing the total tax to 45 percent from the earlier 43 percent. But the SUV market has been hit the most by a monstrous 50 percent tax.
