Prices slashed by Rs 2,000 to Rs 1.61 lakh in Delhi, while in Mumbai, the price cut ranges between Rs 29,000 - Rs 3.38 lakh

It has been a few days since Goods and Service Tax (GST) came into effect and we’ve seen automakers wasting no time to get their vehicle prices down to start luring customers to their showrooms. While we’ve seen Maruti, Audi, Jaguar, Land Rover and Toyota complete this activity on July 1, Ford India has now joined the list. The Indian arm of the American carmaker has decided to reduce the prices of its vehicles by up to 4.5 per cent with immediate effect.

The prices will vary from state to state but the steepest decline is witnessed in Mumbai, where the burden of pre-GST tax structure was heavier than that of Union Territories like Puducherry and Delhi. In India’s financial capital, prices for Ford cars have been slashed by Rs 29,000 (for the Figo) and Rs 3.38 lakh (for the Endeavour).
