June 12 - India's Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles TAMO.NS will raise prices of its cars and SUVs, including electric vehicles, by up to 1.5% from July 1, the carmaker said on Friday, its second price hike in four months as cost pressures from the Middle East conflict bite.
The company increased prices for its internal combustion engine portfolio from April 1.
The Sierra brand maker said the price increase was aimed at partially offsetting rising input costs and sustained inflationary pressures and that the extent of the increase will vary across models and variants.
Earlier this year, rival automaker Maruti Suzuki said it would raise vehicle prices by up to 30,000 rupees ($314.42) from June, while Hyundai Motor India HYUN.NS increased prices from June 1.
Commercial vehicle maker Tata Motors TATM.NS raised prices of its commercial vehicles by up to 1.5% from April 1, citing higher input costs.
