Royal Enfield Himalayan 450, Guerrilla 450 And Scram 440 New Prices After GST Cuts - Could Increase By Rs 20,000
Sad news, isn’t it? You may be able to save with one trick, but that depends on your luck
The prices of the Royal Enfield Scram 440, Guerrilla 450 and the Himalayan 450 will go up by almost Rs 21,000 as per Royal Enfield, with GST 2.0 coming into effect from September 22, 2025. The new tax rate is 40 percent for motorcycles above 350cc (up from the existing 28% with an additional 3% cess). Here’s a detailed breakdown of the prices of all the 3 models:
Royal Enfield Himalayan 450
The Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 is known to be a capable value-for-money do-it-all adventure bike. It is offered in 3 variants, and here’s a detailed table on the current prices and the increase:
|

3,19,682 |
Now, with the GST 2.0 rates, the Himalayan 450 breaches Rs 3 lakh mark for the first time. Prospective buyers may be put off by the psychological barrier of Rs 3 lakh - especially considering the on-road price will be even more.
Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450
The Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 is offered in three variants, and with the new GST rate, prices could rise by up to Rs 18,000. Here’s a detailed breakdown:

The Guerrilla 450 is a great motorcycle for the price you pay as you get plenty of performance wrapped in a roadster package. The biggest drawback is that it comes with a rather small 11-litre fuel tank - which makes it a bit tricky to use for touring.
While the price hike is a letdown, buyers may have to find comfort in the fact that it (base variant) will still be more affordable than the Triumph Speed 400, in the new GST regime.
Royal Enfield Scram 440
The Royal Enfield Scram 440 is offered in two variants. The price will increase up to Rs 15,000 with GST 2.0. Here’s a detailed breakdown:
|
Variant |
Current Ex-Showroom Delhi Price (In Rs) |
Change (In Rs) |
New Ex-showroom Delhi Price (In Rs) |
|
Trail |
2,08,000 |
+15,131 |
2,23,131 |
|
Force |
2,15,000 |
+15,641 |
2,30,641 |
The trail variant comes with spoke wheels and tube tyres, whereas the Force variant gets alloy wheels with tubeless tyres. The Royal Enfield Scram 440 was launched as a successor to the Scram 411, with a larger bored-out engine. It is a 443cc, air and oil-cooled, single-cylinder motor producing 25.4PS and 34Nm
The Scram 411 really needed a 6th gear to unlock its touring potential, and Royal Enfield did exactly that with the Scram 440. While it may not be as affordable as the Scram 411 under the new GST scheme, the hike will still be manageable for most of its buyers, and may not be that big a deal-breaker as such.
While it is sad to see all these performance-packed bikes get costlier, there’s one temporary solution to this: If you purchase any of these bikes, pay the full amount and get it delivered before the deadline, you may be able to save up substantially. If you manage to do that, then you can spend the money saved on fuel or maintenance or even riding gear.
User Reviews
- Experience and Review of Guerrilla 450An excellent bike with solid engine. It has that attractiveness to fall in love. Compact size, big blast. I choose to experience this machine for its style, liquid cooled engine, TFT display, suspension and everything. Long rides does not feel boring on this machine. It definitely give good comfort, mileage depends on situation, 17-22 in traffic and 23-27 on highway. The torque it generates is just fabulous. It has given me upper hand in drag races. Would definitely recommend this bike to teenagers and those riders who wants to experience the feeling of driving Himalayan. This machine is a segment killer, no other bike can pair with it except its big sister Himalayan 450.Read More
- Royal Enfield as bought a amezing bikeAm 6.1 height so i need comfort, maintenance cost, features and style is so good, performance wise amazing and torque in 6th gear is next level. I bought this bike for a long drive and as well as city riding. Stress less ride, the variation in weight is due to the additional touring and safety features equipped on the top-end model. Here is a quick breakdown. Totally the bike is crazy i ride this bike continuously for 500km. For ADV lover one of the best bike. I would like to recommend this bike who has a passion in off-road they can buy with any second thoughts and style is so good performance wise amazing. But service is disappointed in some service station.Read More
