Earlier this month, Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India announced that it would pass on the complete GST benefit to customers for its bikes and scooters under 350cc. While the CB300R was not included in that initial update, Honda has now revised its price on the official website, and it gets a substantial price cut.
- Honda CB300R price drops by Rs 21,000
- Now undercuts TVS Apache RTR 310 in pricing
Honda CB300R price after GST 2.0
Price reduction makes it more competitive in the sub-400cc segment
The Honda CB300R is now priced at Rs 2.19 lakh, down from Rs 2.40 lakh, representing a significant Rs 21,000 reduction. The bike continues to be powered by a 286cc, single-cylinder, DOHC, liquid-cooled engine that produces 31hp and 27.5Nm of torque, paired with a 6-speed gearbox featuring a slip-and-assist clutch.
With the price reduction, the CB300R now sits more competitively against rivals, including the KTM 250 Duke (Rs 2.12 lakh), Triumph Speed 400 (Rs 2.50 lakh) and TVS Apache RTR 310 (Rs 2.21 lakh to Rs 2.87 lakh).
The CB300R was previously priced at Rs 2.77 lakh before being reduced to Rs 2.40 lakh with increased localisation. This latest price drop, thanks to the revised GST, further improves its value proposition in this segment. While the CB300R has benefited from price cuts, other Honda BigWing models like the NX500, Rebel 500 and CBR650R have seen price hikes following the GST changes.
