Mercedes-Benz India Plans Price Hike Due to Forex Woes
Mercedes-Benz India, the company that makes luxury cars, might make their cars cost more early next year.
This is because the value of India's money, the rupee, has gone down compared to the Euro, which is used in Europe.
The company has already raised prices a little bit.
They are hoping the rupee's value might improve.
They are trying not to raise prices too much for now.
Last year, they sold almost 19,000 cars in India.
Mercedes-Benz India is considering a price increase.
The price hike is planned for early next year.
The reason for the potential increase is the weakened rupee against the euro.
The company has already raised prices by 3.5-4% this year.
Mercedes-Benz sold 18,928 units in India in 2024-25.
