Intro
TVS Ronin prices have been slashed across variants as GST 2.0 reduces tax on sub-350cc motorcycles by Rs 11,200 to Rs 14,330. This matters as the entry point now starts at Rs 1,24,790 just ahead of the festive season.

Why the price cut matters
The GST reduction meaningfully reduces the upfront cost and brings the starting price to ₹1.24 lakh, sharpening the Ronin’s value proposition against rivals in the neo-retro segment. This also puts it in a more competitive position against bikes like the Royal Enfield Hunter 350, which has seen similar price drops. For potential buyers, the bigger cuts on the mid and top variants make the bike’s advanced features – like Bluetooth connectivity and dual-channel ABS – more accessible.
Are there any changes to specs or features?
No mechanical or feature updates with this price revision and the bike continues with the 225.9cc single making about 20 bhp and 19.93 Nm and 5-speed gearbox with slipper clutch. Equipment remains LED lighting, Bluetooth with navigation and ABS modes depending on variant.
On-road pricing
While the ex-showroom prices are confirmed, the final on-road price will vary by city due to RTO and insurance charges. However, early data from dealership boards suggests significant savings on the final transaction. For example, the on-road price of the base variant in Delhi, which was approximately ₹1.63 lakh, is expected to drop by around ₹13,000, bringing it closer to the ₹1.5 lakh mark.
Closing note
For those looking at mid or top variants, the bigger cuts make the Ronin’s ergonomics and tech more affordable, especially as the festive season kicks in post–September 22. Those comparing with others may find the new entry point and variant savings attractive for near-term buying.
