By Arjun Nair
Published June 10, 2026
Maruti Suzuki has introduced a new price protection and an RD-backed loan scheme for buyers purchasing the Alto K10, Celerio, S-Presso, and Wagon R, claiming that the move is intended to help the entry-level customers, who are the most sensitive to price fluctuations.
This scheme covers bookings that are made until June 14, 2026.
The carmaker has already announced a price hike of up to Rs 30,000 across its model range.

Maruti Suzuki India Senior Executive Officer of Marketing & Sales, Partho Banerjee, stated,
“On the feedback of our channel partners, we have announced a price protection scheme for entry customers. Their channel partner’s plea was simple: the customer who is stepping forward to buy a car should not be pushed back by a price hike.
So, we are considering a price protection window for small car buyers. If you book, we give you a cushion”.
The company also claims that the scheme would support first-time buyers and help motorisation grow across the country.
Besides the price protection offer, Maruti Suzuki has also launched a recurring deposit-backed auto loan programme called Suhana Safar.

Buyers opting for it will be paying monthly installments that are equal to the car EMI to an RD account. This amount can be further used as a down payment for their next car loan from the same bank.
