Tata Motors on Monday announced a price hike of up to 1.5 per cent across its commercial vehicle range, effective from April 1, 2026, citing rising commodity prices and increasing input costs. The company said the price increase is aimed at partially offsetting the impact of higher raw material costs. The extent of the hike will vary depending on the model and variant of the vehicle.
Tata Motors, part of the USD 180 billion Tata Group, is India’s largest manufacturer of commercial vehicles and a globally recognised producer of utility vehicles, pick-ups, trucks and buses. With more than eight decades of experience in commercial mobility, the company has built a reputation for innovation, reliability and performance. Its product portfolio includes advanced powertrains, connected technologies and intelligent fleet solutions that cater to diverse applications ranging from last-mile delivery to public transportation. The company operates in India and South Korea and has a global presence across Africa, the Middle East, Latin America, Southeast Asia and SAARC countries.
As per a Composite Scheme of Arrangement approved by the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), Mumbai Bench, the company’s name was changed from TML Commercial Vehicles Limited to Tata Motors Limited on October 29, 2025. Its equity shares are currently listed on both the BSE and the National Stock Exchange of India. In Kolkata, price revisions by major manufacturers often influence fleet purchases and logistics investments across eastern India. Industry stakeholders note that demand for trucks and small cargo vehicles remains strong in and around Kolkata due to growing e-commerce deliveries, port-linked logistics and infrastructure activity in the region.
