GST 2.0 Brings Relief for Bikers: Jawa & Yezdi Slash Prices
Motorcycle enthusiasts have a reason to celebrate! Thanks to the GST 2.0 tax reform, Classic Legends has announced massive price cuts across its Jawa and Yezdi lineup.
The GST rate on motorcycles under 350cc has been slashed from 28% to 18%, and the company has passed on the entire benefit to customers. The result? Almost all Jawa and Yezdi bikes now fall below ₹2 lakh – a crucial psychological price point for Indian buyers.
📉 Key Highlights of Jawa & Yezdi Price Drop
- Price cuts range between ₹13,500 and ₹17,000.
- Jawa 42 now starts at ₹1.59 lakh (earlier ₹1.72 lakh).
- Jawa Perak, earlier priced above ₹2.16 lakh, now costs just ₹1.99 lakh.
- Yezdi Adventure sees the biggest benefit, dropping from ₹2.14 lakh to ₹1.98 lakh.
- All models now offer 4 years / 50,000 km warranty (extendable to 6 years).

🚀 Why This Price Cut Matters
- Festive Season Boost: Arrives just in time for upcoming festivals when bike sales peak.
- Wider Accessibility: More customers can now afford Jawa & Yezdi bikes under ₹2 lakh.
- Better Value: Warranty, roadside assistance, and spare parts costs have also come down.
- Competitive Edge: Brings Jawa & Yezdi closer to rivals like Royal Enfield Classic 350 and Honda H’ness CB350.
⚖️ The Other Side of GST 2.0
While GST 2.0 is great news for sub-350cc motorcycles, it introduces a steep 40% GST slab for bikes above 350cc.
- Bikes like Royal Enfield Himalayan 450, Interceptor 650, KTM 390s, and Triumph 400s are set to become more expensive.
- This shift could push many buyers towards the sub-₹2 lakh segment, benefitting brands like Jawa, Yezdi, and Royal Enfield.
✅ Final Thoughts
The Jawa & Yezdi price cuts under GST 2.0 are a huge win for enthusiasts who were waiting for more affordable middleweight motorcycles. By pricing almost their entire range under ₹2 lakh, Classic Legends has hit the sweet spot for Indian riders.
If you were planning to buy a new motorcycle this festive season, this could be the perfect time to make the switch.
