Expecting a bullish demand in the festive season, Maruti Suzuki India Ltd has decreased discounts on its best-selling hatch Alto and flagship Maruti 800 by Rs 1,000 and Rs 4,000 respectively.
The company was offering a discount of Rs 11,000 on Alto, which will now come down to Rs 10,000, while discount on Maruti 800 would drop to Rs 8,000 from Rs 12,000 earlier.
The reduction in discount is in line with the company's expectation of a good demand of Alto, Omni and Maruti 800, sources said.
MSIL would continue offering discounts on various models except Swift and SX4.
It currently offers Rs 18,000 discount on Wagon-R petrol and Zen Estilo, while Rs 3,000 is off on Wagon-R LPG. A heavy discount of Rs 30,000 is being offered on Esteem, which is expected to be phased out by next year.
The company is offering a discount of Rs 10,000 on its multi-utility vehicle Versa. The discount on Omni, however, has been reduced to Rs 6,000 from previous month's Rs 7,000.
