New Delhi, May 2026 – If you are in the market for a new family hatchback or a rugged SUV, this month might be your golden ticket. Maruti Suzuki has just rolled out an aggressive benefit structure for its Arena and Commercial showrooms, offering massive savings ranging from cash discounts to scrappage bonuses.

Leading the charge this month is the Maruti Victoris with a staggering ₹70,000 in total benefits, while the popular Brezza and WagonR aren’t far behind.

Here is the complete breakdown of every model, the fine print on the offers, and what you need to know before visiting the dealership.

The King of Discounts: Maruti Victoris (₹70,000)

The spotlight this May is firmly on the Maruti Victoris. The company is pushing this model hard with the highest benefits of the month—totaling up to ₹70,000.

  • The Breakdown: This includes an exchange bonus of up to ₹50,000 (or a scrappage bonus of up to ₹60,000) plus an institutional offer of ₹10,000.
  • Who is it for? Perfect for first-time SUV buyers or fleet operators looking to retire old vehicles under the scrappage policy.

Top Contenders: SUVs & Taxi Specials

Two vehicles are tied for the second-highest discount slot at ₹55,000: the popular Maruti Brezza compact SUV and the Tour H3 (the taxi version of the WagonR).

Maruti Brezza (₹55,000 Savings)

The Brezza remains a bestseller, and Maruti wants to keep it that way. This month, you can drive one home with:

  • Cash Discount: ₹25,000
  • Exchange/Scrappage: ₹20,000 (exchange) or ₹25,000 (scrappage)
  • Institutional Offer: ₹5,000

Hatchback Heroes: Alto K10 & WagonR (₹52,500)

If you are looking for a pure city car, the entry-level twins offer identical savings of ₹52,500.

  • Maruti Alto K10 & Maruti WagonR: Both offer a cash discount of ₹25,000, an exchange bonus of ₹15,000 (or scrappage of ₹25,000), plus rural/institutional extras.
  • Tour H1 (Alto Taxi): Slightly lower at ₹50,000, still a great deal for cabbies.

Mid-Segment & Lifestyle Offers

The sporty Maruti Swift sees a respectable ₹45,000 reduction, making it a hot pick for young buyers. The cash discount here is ₹15,000, paired with a strong ₹20,000 exchange bonus.

Meanwhile, the quirky S-Presso and the efficient Celerio are available with benefits of ₹37,500 each. The Eeco (India’s favorite van) also falls into this bracket with the same ₹37,500 offer.

The Odd Ones Out: Zero Discounts in May

Interestingly, Maruti has decided to hold the line on three specific models this month. If you are looking at the Maruti Dzire (sedan), the Maruti Ertiga (MPV), or the Tour M (Ertiga taxi), you will find ₹0 in official discounts.

Why? This usually indicates high demand or healthy inventory levels for these specific vehicles. Dealers might offer small discretionary discounts, but the factory-backed offers are absent for now.

Key Terms to Know Before You Buy

To ensure you get the best deal, understand these components:

  1. Cash Discount: Direct reduction on the ex-showroom price.
  2. Exchange Bonus: Extra money if you trade in your old car (value of the old car is separate).
  3. Scrappage Bonus: Higher benefit (up to ₹60k on Victoris) if you have a certificate from an authorized scrapping center.
  4. Institutional/Rural Offer: Specific to corporate buyers or rural zone registrations.

Pro Tip: The scrap bonus is often higher than the exchange bonus. If you have a very old, non-running car, scrapping it might save you more money this month than trading it in.
