Sales of Maruti Suzuki’s mid-size sedan Ciaz seem to have come under pressure with 43% tax (28% GST plus 15% cess) getting levied on hybrid cars. Launched in 2014, Maruti unleashed Ciaz’s mild hybrid variant last year, which attracted just 12.5% excise duty compared to a 28% on any other car in the segment. Hence, Ciaz became most popular choice of customers in the segment. However, after the GST roll-out, taxes on hybrid cars were hiked to the same level – 28% GST plus 15% cess as any other car with a more than 4-metre chassis and this has substantially impacted the fortune of the sedan.
