How to Avail the Discount

Getting the reduced price is simpler than you might think. Follow these steps:

1. Visit an authorized dealer of the respective brand.
2. Ask for the ‘2026 Mega Discount Offer’ and mention the exact variant you’re interested in.
3. Provide a valid ID proof and a recent salary slip (or any other document the dealer requests).
4. Negotiate the on‑road price by factoring in insurance, registration, and optional accessories.
5. Complete the paperwork and enjoy your new car with a hefty saving.

Many dealers are also offering additional perks such as free service for the first 2 years or a complimentary extended warranty, so it pays to ask.

What the Discount Means for Buyers

From a buyer’s perspective, the Rs 1 lakh‑plus reduction translates to a lower EMI for those opting for finance, and a higher trade‑in value for those looking to upgrade. Moreover, the discounted models retain their resale strength because the price drop is limited to the initial purchase period, not the overall market perception.

Conclusion

2026 is shaping up to be a rewarding year for Indian car enthusiasts. With discounts as deep as Rs 1.26 lakh on popular models like the Kia Seltos, Tata Harrier, Mahindra XUV300, and Honda WR‑V, there’s never been a better time to step into a newer, safer, and more feature‑rich vehicle. Remember to verify the offer at an authorized showroom, compare on‑road costs, and take advantage of any additional dealer incentives.

Happy hunting, and may your next drive be both exciting and economical!
