India Yamaha Motor has rolled out significant price reductions across its popular two-wheeler lineup, aligning with the newly introduced GST 2.0 reforms. Effective from September 22, 2025, these changes stem from the Indian governmentโs decision to lower the GST rate on motorcycles and scooters up to 350cc from 28% to 18%. This bold move is set to make Yamahaโs range of bikes and scooters more affordable, sparking excitement among Indian riders.
The revised tax structure brings savings ranging from Rs. 7,759 to Rs. 17,581 across Yamahaโs portfolio, which includes dynamic models like the R15, MT15, FZ-S, FZ-X, Aerox 155, RayZR, and Fascino. This price drop is a game-changer for budget-conscious buyers in Indiaโs thriving two-wheeler market, where affordability drives purchasing decisions.
New Prices and Savings
Hereโs a breakdown of the updated prices and the savings customers can expect:
- R15: Now priced at Rs. 1,94,439, with a saving of Rs. 17,581.
- MT15: Available for Rs. 1,65,536, reduced by Rs. 14,964.
- FZ-S Fi Hybrid: Priced at Rs. 1,33,159, offering a Rs. 12,031 discount.
- FZ-X Hybrid: Now at Rs. 1,37,560, with a Rs. 12,430 benefit.
- Aerox 155 Version S: Retails for Rs. 1,41,137, saving Rs. 12,753.
- RayZR: Priced at Rs. 86,001, with a Rs. 7,759 reduction.
- Fascino: Now costs Rs. 94,281, offering savings of Rs. 8,509.
This Matters
The GST 2.0 reform is a landmark decision for Indiaโs two-wheeler industry, as nearly 98% of buyers opt for vehicles under 350cc. By slashing the tax rate by 10 percentage points, the government has not only simplified the tax framework but also made two-wheelers more accessible to millions. This is particularly impactful in a price-sensitive market like India, where even small savings can influence buying decisions.
Yamahaโs decision to pass on the full GST benefits to customers is expected to boost demand, especially with the festive season approaching. The combination of lower prices and attractive dealer offers could drive a significant sales surge in the final quarter of 2025.
Unaffected by Higher Tax Slabs
While two-wheelers above 350cc now face a steeper 40% GST rate, Yamahaโs core lineup remains untouched by this change. Models like the R15 and Aerox 155, which cater to young, performance-driven riders, and practical scooters like the RayZR and Fascino, are perfectly positioned to capitalize on the new tax benefits.
