Maruti Suzuki says some of its cars will become more expensive.
The increase can be as much as ₹20,000.
The company says the prices of materials and other costs have gone up.
It says inflation is also making business more expensive.
Maruti Suzuki tried to save money to avoid passing all of these costs to buyers.
However, it says it must pass on some of the extra cost.
The company has not said which models or versions will cost more.
The reports say the increase will begin in September, with one specifically saying September 2026.
Maruti Suzuki India will raise prices by up to ₹20,000 on selected models.
