Royal Enfield, one of India’s most iconic motorcycle brands, is witnessing a mixed impact from the recent GST 2.0 revisions. Bikes with engine capacities below 350cc, including popular models like the Hunter 350, Classic 350, Meteor 350, Bullet 350, and Goan Classic 350, will now see reduced GST rates, making them more affordable for riders and first-time buyers. However, larger motorcycles, such as the Himalayan 450, Guerrilla 450, Scram 440, and the 650cc lineup, will face a higher GST, increasing their prices. This shift is expected to affect sales patterns and demand across different segments.

GST cuts make 350cc bikes more affordable
The GST rate on two-wheelers below 350cc has been reduced from 28% to 18%. This benefits Royal Enfield’s high-volume motorcycles, which account for nearly 87% of its total sales. Price reductions make these bikes accessible to a wider audience, encouraging first-time buyers and commuters to choose these models for daily use or leisure riding.
Bigger bikes face higher taxation
For motorcycles above 400cc, including the Himalayan, Guerrilla, Scram, and 650cc models like the Interceptor and Continental GT, the GST rate has increased from 28% to 40%. This results in price hikes ranging from Rs 18,720 for the Scram 440 to over Rs33,000 for some 650cc models. Aspirational buyers of premium and adventure-tourer motorcycles will now need to factor in the higher GST while planning their purchase.Disclaimer: All prices mentioned are based on official sources, industry data, and calculations reflecting the latest GST rate changes.
