Why Toyota is selling Maruti Suzuki Cars in INDIA? How High Taxes are Killing Car Brands. 

India's tax system punishes everyone except the government.

True, bought a Nexon 8 months ago, the salesman showed me the actual price of the Nexon. Do you know Tata's cost of making a Nexon (xms) is only 6.45 lacs, profit included?, and we pay 9.45 lacs for it? ... 3 lacs in state and centeral taxes ... Itna profit per car pe to tata nahin banata... I knew auto pe taxes bhaut hai but on seeing how much taxes i paid for my car made me low key mad.

Yeah I agree with toyata view, taxes should be based on how polluting the cars are rather than dimensions. It's unfair for companies who have very good quality engines and they have to suffer because of stupid dimensions

Toyota has one of the best cars around the world but the tax system here don't allow them to launch those incredible cars here in india. I lived in UAE for 10yrs and arabs value toyota more than BMW AUDI MERC which is opposite in india. Government should re model the taxes on cars so people can get good cars at lower prices which the Europeans and Americans get.

High taxation in India is a major hindrance in our development.

This is the point I raised in the video of why Maruti cars are losing weight over the years. Our tax system is not friendly to good cars, which is why low quality Maruti cars dominate our market.

A great car company like toyota had to compromise in quality because of the harsh and unjust tax system of India, its a shame for our country and a great loss for the common man.

Can't understand why this guy has

The fact that govt has kept cars and bikes under 28% GST by considering it a 'luxury item' is absurd. It is like saying common man shouldn't have a aspiration to buy a car. if it does, that is luxury. Considering its a high value item, GST should be minimal say 12%. Also abolish road tax. It should be illegal after GST implementation.

The thing I've learnt so far by being in India, while being a car enthusiast is, to just buy a well taken care of used car. Quality anyway used to be better before and the styling imo also was better, prices have dropped down to the point of being on the bottom of the depreciation curve. So they're affordable, reliable, stylish and fun to drive. The only downside is the fitness check, which is a small price to pay!

The fact is that Toyota earns only 40,000 on selling fortuner and the government gets around 18lakh rs as taxes on the fortuner.... Thats why Chevrolet and ford have left india... And that's why car companies dont bring the quality cars in india... Fortuner in uae is far better than a fortuner in india power and quality wise... Indians can't have quality products because of this brutal taxation

In Australia we pay each year $800 for registration renewal that includes transport accident compensation levy. This is 40000 Indian rupees each year. Very expensive to keep vehicles. We have Toyota Prado and Toyota Camry Hybrid. Toyota makes reliable cars and we never had any problems so far.

toyota fortuner company profit 40k dealer profit 1 lakh government tax 18 lakh ab toyota kis ke lie kaam kare?

Country should be made trade friendly .Too much taxation reduces the development.

If the government wants to tax hybrid vehicles, then they cannot justify having an environment ministry. They can't even give us foreign type roads in Mumbai. Or even speedy completion of mass rapid transit.

Taxes are sucking the soul out of businesses in India Apart from a few handful businessmen who are remotely running the government, everyone is going through hell

I think Govt. Should revise the taxation on cars, so that companies get more free hand to sell cars and ultimately the people will get benifits. Great video like always 👌. Nicely explained

Yes , I have Toyota Yaris which I had preferred it over Urban cruiser. The only obvious reasons was Reliability . But it got discontinued sadly. Governments play and important role , looks like india Government doesn't like promoting Toyota.

I was wondering why Toyota was rebadging Balenos and Brezzas and learned that the truth is far, FAR more depressing than i could ever realise. It really hurts when you're someone who loves cars and wants to own one of call your own in the future someday and learning this,... I dont know what I'm gonna do

So true. Taxation is sucking the Joy & Playfulness of citizens. Like, paying 8Lakhs for 4Lakh worth Cars, or paying 40Lakh for 20 Lakh worth cars. Many car companies are minimising their weight which "logically" defies more chaos in terms of safety & ruggedness. Nowadays, Car Body frames are also too thin & lack hardness which is more dangerous for unfortunate incidences etc.

Nepali people : if only nepal took as much tax as india . Our tax on vehicles are wild

Great video man! Very informative. Lately I was wondering why Toyota was selling baleno and breeza. Thankx for your efforts!

As per the Indian government rules,, all automative companies should improve mileage every year to the number of cars they sell or else they will have big fines. That is why every year a company will launch a facelift and claim big milage. Toyota had no options other than selling rebranded cars of Maruti. Every car brand in India is facing this issue.

I see why tesla is smart for not even trying to enter the market before things change

I agree 100% on the tax structure. Last year I purchased a motorcycle, a Yamaha MT15 at on road price of 184500.. The IDV for the vehicle was 113400. I couldn't believe that. I imagine that tye cost to company would be even less than that..

Very informative video as always! 👍

Nice video details are well explained, and good narration (no over talkative).

India has the worst public transport but we still have expensive cars, clearly points to corrupt govt.

India main business karna muskil hain. Now I realized tax department bahut gundagiri karta hai

Tata and mahindra should also make a collaboration car🤞

Absolutely love it point to point ❤️🙌🏻

4 times more tax we pay here even for bikes..car is a dream here..the bike u get at 1.3 lak Here cost 2 lakh 60 thousand

Many thanks for your analyses. You are right about Toyota, which I used in the ME for a long time. It is reliable, economical and for the price range compared, good enough. They have premium models as well which we dont see here in India, and I bet they are great cars. Eg RAV=4, and going higher up to the more premium ones , known by another name Lexus.. super cars! But I highly deplore the Indian Govts' attitude on car sales in India by their exhorbitant taxes. So also their ever deplorable import policies.. depriving the Indian public of using even used car imports from other countries! We are really unfortunate being Indians that way. Yet, we are saare jahanse acha... ha ha..

Nicely researched video, great content. Although a quick suggestion, many indian websites are wrongly publishing segment of cars, and sadly even you are propagating the same false info. You may need to invest sometime to research on A/B/C/D segments cars. For example @3:36 Yaris is being called a C segment and later Altis/Elantra/Civic as D segment which is wrong. Just for sedan csrs in India below is an example for Suzuki/Toyota/Honda/Hyundai: A segemnt - Dzire/××/Amaze/Xcent B segemnt - Ciaz/Yaris/City/Verna/ C segment - ××/Altis/Civic/Elantra D segment - ××/Camry/Accord/Sonata

The waiting period for maruti cars were higher due to chip shortage, but their Toyota versions were readily available

India mein 20 lacs se Salary zyada to 30% tax do fir 28% GST saala 60% salary toh tax mein jaati aur sirf 1% tax bharte h matlab sirf job workers ki hi bara bajti h desh mein, sab hum logo par hi thop do aur baki business owner ko chhoot dete raho..

Very informative video...great efforts bhai

I was also against Toyota rebadging maruti cars but after I saw this video now i get why they're doing it infact I support them cuz we Indians don't deserve good vehicles here because the govt here is simply looting the automakers n citizens in the name of taxes.

The huge government taxes are total discouragement for auto sector. Toyota seema right here, the length based taxed are unnecessary. Taxes should be on the emission.

Please make a video on Fiat engine I requested you multiple time You can make thumbnail showing tata harrier with other foreign car and show that both use same engine may this attract some viewer you can even explain Why brand actually source part??

Good job bro, very detailed & informative video

Hats off to you to raise this issue on RU-vid.

Brezza per 28 % gst and 17% cess hai. Total 45% on base price

People don't realise this but on the sale of one Fortuner, Toyota only makes a profit of ₹35,000 and whereas the Indian Govt makes ₹18L !!

Brother please let me know that I should buy tata nexon now or wait till upgraded 6 airbags vesion

You deserve more subscribers for the level of work you put to make videos like this

The research demand in automobile sector you mention reminds of a scenario in the textile industries where the government was expecting the dissolved salt content of water after all processes to be less than the ground water source which already had high salt content !!

Just an FYI, at 5:14 you are simply adding the cess and gst but infact the cess is levied over the cost of car plus gst. Basically you pay cess tax over gst too. Thus the total tax sometimes comes out more the 50% of the car value. 🙂

Mujhe vdio pasand aayi bhai ..or maine subscribe krdia kyuki kaafi jada mehnat jaati h 🤝

Amazing informative video Just be consistent

Here in Nepal we got DAIHATSU Raize from Toyota instead of Urban Cruzer (rebadged Breeza). Raize competes with Hyundai Creta Kia Seltos Nissan Kicks and other so called Suvs being a subcompact suv🤣 due to high price. Most of things is hugely affected by government rules and market demand. Here we pay around 260% tax for 4 wheeler irrespective of its size or engine capacity.

Soon all good companies may leave india if such high taxes are maintained

You have unique content bro keep going🔥🔥

Your content is deferent bro,, keep it up..

New glanza does not have fully covered front wheel well..by sheet metal for front 2 wheels...it's just covered by plastic...safety point of it's not at all good for the premium hatchback..that too for toyota brand... Foreign car brands are just focusing on gimmicky features in India and not safety and good driving dynamics in the car

Jai ho Modi ji ki 🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦 Is Govt. Ko finance ki samjh nhi h

Very nicely explained 👌🏻

Respect your straight to point explanation backed by good research. Subbed.

I disagree with your point. Suzuki's smaller engines are tried and tested. They are always praised by us for their reliability and low maintenance. Why do you think Maruti is able to sell so many Baleno, Alto, Wagon Rs despite lacking in safety? It's their engine. So, there shouldn't be any problem with the engines.

This tax issue cannot be a 100% reason for not launching new home grown product in India by Toyota yes it can be a added reason as if you see other Auto Manufacturers are launching their new products and taxes are applied uniformly on all. companies.

BHAI I WAIT FOR UR VIDEO , EVERY WEEK PLEASE UPLOAD MORE OF SUCH VIDEOS

Very informative and to the point video

Toyota has no match in reliability the prime example my neighbour owns Toyota qualis 6 lakhs km driven which is 2002 model and running like a charm......

After getting frustrated by the Indian Government I say that this is a good deal because our Government doesn't want to upscale our lifestyle and many are frustrated with our current finance minister and now opening the old wounds, I hope she resigns although she has done a good job she is very frustrating

But very good analysis by the RU-vidr. Keep it up.

Always wondered this thanks for info

Well I think of leaving India as I wanted to import a car but the tax man that is too high

We have a greedy government and though the taxes are very high, wonder where all the tax money goes?? BTW, the issue of India being 1 of the most highly taxed country was confirmed by the Finance Minister, onion queen in her budget presentation in parliament on February 1st 2023.

Sarkar ko lagta hai yeh tax lagaana sahi hai Cuz Mercedes bmw toh raees hi lete hai unke liye paisa kyaa cheez hai Be zaroori hai sab Ameer or raees Filmo waale raees ho ki car khraab hui toh banda dusri car lega Hamaara bhi man karta hai aise premium vehicle lene kaa Yaha 24 lakh ki bmw bike india main milti hai toh Vahi actual rate uska 13 lakh hai

90% of the statements are closer to Truth. Good job.

Great content 👍🏻

You used the word cost cutting for maruti but in your older videos you usually talk about weight cutting for maruti. What do you think their focus is on cost cutting or weight?

Thank you for this clarification 🙂

Great & Knowledgeable Video

Thanks. Whenever I saw glanza I was misunderstanding it as Baleno 😂😂

Utterly barbaric tax system in India is killing Toyota, the most reliable car in the world. Why don’t our govt allow us to have a good car which lasts forever?

Yaris m first in segment 6 nhi 7 airbags standard the sbi variants m starting m,, jo baad m kam sell k chalte optional 3 airbags kr diye gye kuch variants m

Very well explained, India is great killing most of the brands future plans

Tax ne to aag laga diya aag laga diya 😂

The original Toyota product is very good compared to any others

Pls make a video why Pickup trucks idea failed in India ?? US & Europe me Pickup truck ka bohot craze hai ... Would love know more abt it ✌️

thanks for this informetion but one qustion in mind whay not longe new cars on etios segment i am from delhi but till one yeare stay in rajisthan till know in super hot condition etios good better then dizer also feule consimstion

Imagine when maruti Suzuki selling Fortuner Maruti fortuner 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Your videos are to the point & simple. I think you will soon become one of top 5 automotive channel in India. I love your videos 💖

You should allow the DATA slide to be displayed for appropriate length of time to register with viewer. Eg,. 5:31. Other wise the impact wouldn't be there. Taxes after GST regime is totally ridiculous. GOI wants India to travel on Bullock Carts. Very well then!

Your points are valid but in India, people are cost and mileage sensitive and things like safety and reliability becomes after thought. And due to climate being favorable to vehicles in most parts of country, reliability isn't an issue in most parts of India. While in Europe, if the car bails out on you in Winter, you can die due to cold weather. So people are ready to pay extra for better comfort and reliability. Toyota is just catering to requirements of different demographics

Gov should stop this excess tax. based on pollution tax is valid idea... Due to this general public is getting cheap cars gov is anyway in profit and companies are finding cheaper ways

I request you to provide feedback on Toyota customer care number for introcucing their global lineup in India in sub 10 lakhs range . I have done the same and as more and more Indians will do this I am sure they will do it.🙏🙏🙏🙏 As Toyota cars have best of both worlds Relaibillty and build quality.

Thanks sir Video aur jaldi dale.

Then how come tata and Mahindra providing affordable and built quality cars..

Toyota = Reliability.

Very very informative videos 👍👍👍

Awesome video man

50% tax is SHIT !

The realisation that on fortunar govt makes 18 lakhs while Toyota makes only 35k rupees was a shocking realisation of this looting govt taxes..and it's the govt that's responsible for high prices and low quality products in india

Nice information sir make a video of TATA sumo

Loot to sarkar ne macha rakhi hai fuel par bhi 50% or Car par bhi🧐🧐🧐

if maruti baleno size increase 2mm the tax increase by 18% to 28%. and price increase approximate 70k-80k..... by khan sir patna wale

But Suzuki engines are also well refined

very well informed video. 👍👍👍
