Consumer Benefits Reside Post GST
In spite of price rise, a customer will be end up with a gain after GST implementation. If we compare the data before and after GST implementation, we come up with the positive repercussions of GST on Toyota cars prices.
For example Post GST, the price of Etios has come down by INR 23,000 on base price and after cess implementation and cutting INR 13,000 as additional cess, the customers will still be leaving with INR 10,000 as savings on Etios.
