DriveSpark's Thoughts About The New Ducati Bike Prices
While the Indian government has reduced the import taxes by 25 percent, bike manufacturer's are not passing on the entire benefit to customers.
Ducati's new price list reveals the reduction is in the range of 12 to 13 percent.
But this has to do with the new Goods and Service Tax (GST) and the Social Welfare Surcharge, which has replaced Educational Cess and Secondary and Higher Education Cess.
The Social Welfare Surcharge is 10 percent, while those of the educational cess was 3 percent.
