Reason For The Price Cut
While the Brezza is a sub-4 metre vehicle, it has a 1,500 cc engine, and so the SUV was taxed at a higher rate compared to the likes of other sub-4m models like the Swift or the Dzire. It, hence, attracted a higher compensation cess of 17 percent leading to a 45 percent total tax. Here’s the detailed breakup of the taxes on the Brezza:
| Type of Vehicle |
Old GST Slab (Including Cess) |
New GST Rates |
Savings |
| Sub 4 metre (Petrol) with engine capacity of 1,500 cc |
45 percent (28 percent GST + 17 percent compensation cess) |
40 percent |
5 percent |
