August has barely kicked off and TVS Motor Company has already reshuffled its price list across a big chunk of its two-wheeler lineup in India. If you’ve been sitting on the fence about buying a TVS, here’s what you need to know before you walk into a dealership.
The short answer: most of it. TVS has pushed prices higher on several popular models this month, with the Orbiter V2 taking the biggest hit on the wallet. The Orbiter V2 is TVS’s premium connected scooter play, and while the exact quantum of the hike varies by variant and city (on-road prices differ state to state), it’s enough to make a meaningful difference if you were about to pull the trigger. Several other bikes and scooters across the portfolio have also seen modest upward revisions — the kind of incremental increases that manufacturers typically attribute to rising input costs, logistics, or simply recalibrating margins as a new financial quarter rolls in.
This is a pattern we’ve seen across the industry in 2025 and continuing into 2026 — Hero, Honda, Bajaj, and now TVS have all used the start of a new month as a trigger to quietly adjust numbers. It’s worth bookmarking your favourite model’s price page rather than relying on what a friend paid three months ago.
Now for the good news — and there actually is some. The TVS Ntorq 125 has received a price cut, making it a rare exception in this round of revisions. The Ntorq 125 has been one of the most entertaining sport scooters in its segment for a while now, with a punchy 124.8cc engine, a connected instrument cluster, and a character that appeals to younger riders who want something that doesn’t look like everything else on the road. A lower sticker price makes it an even harder proposition to ignore in a competitive 125cc scooter market where the Honda Dio 125 and Suzuki Avenis are constantly snapping at its heels.
A few things. First, if you’ve been planning a two-wheeler purchase — whether it’s your first or you’re upgrading — waiting rarely works in your favour when it comes to pricing. Manufacturers don’t send advance notice before a revision goes live. Second, always verify current ex-showroom prices directly with your local dealer or on the TVS website, because prices vary by state due to road tax and registration differences.
For commuters, the Ntorq price cut is genuinely useful news. For anyone eyeing the Orbiter V2 or other premium TVS models, factor in the revised numbers before doing your EMI math.
Indian two-wheeler prices have been on a slow but consistent upward climb over the last couple of years. Between commodity costs, evolving emission norms, and the incremental addition of tech features, motorcycles and scooters are simply not as cheap as they were in 2020. The flip side is that the hardware you get for your money today — safety features, connectivity, build quality — is genuinely better. Whether that trade-off feels worth it depends entirely on your budget and what you ride for.
Keep your paperwork ready, verify the on-road price in your city, and if the Ntorq 125 was already on your shortlist — now might actually be the right moment to go take that test ride.
