Tata Punch EV Price Hiked by Up to Rs 20,000 in September 2026
Tata Motors has increased the prices of the Punch EV in India as part of its September 2026 price revision. The electric SUV now costs up to Rs 20,000 more, depending on the battery pack and variant.
The latest hike comes after Tata Motors announced a broader price increase of up to Rs 25,000 across its passenger vehicle range from September 1, citing rising input costs and inflationary pressures.
The Punch EV continues to offer 30kWh and 40kWh battery options, making it one of the more affordable electric SUVs in India. Its new ex-showroom price now starts at Rs 9.79 lakh.
