1. 1) A similar deal was done in May 2025 with the UK. At that time, no media coverage, nothing, and even how many people knew about that?
   
   2) I do not understand why the media is bringing half a story in front of the common public?
   
   3) Please note that any bilateral or multilateral deal comes with the complex issue of trade deficit if the decision taken proves wrong! So keep in mind that when India opens a quota for 250000 cars with certain restrictions on price range, fuel type, and technology to protect our interests as well.
   
   4) While giving the market access with reduced duties, the Indian Car market will undergo revolutionary changes, and Indian auto makers will understand the aspirations of Indian buyers in the right perspective. This will enhance market competitiveness.
   
   5) While India has opened a quota for the EU and UK regions, the Indian Car industry is also getting better access to the EU and UK regions. The real question is whether Indian car makers can now produce the EU/UK-level product? Are they ready for this market? Is such a skill set with them? Can they triple the car exports? They should focus on these rather than enjoying the incentives and fooling indian consumers.
   
   6) Regarding policies related to CBU/CKD or SKD, these were transitory provisions to protect our interests. With the settling down of these deals, the pros and cons of making the model back again to CBU are up to that OE to decide. They have to decide whether to enter the quota or not; of course, a strong knowledge base is required for deep market analysis, profit booking, sales analysis, region-wise growth, etc.

2. If we got the European cars at the price of indian cars, no one will purchase the indian cars…for Indians, (not the rich class) price matters most…

3. Bjp want to benefit only super rich of India

4. No Indian deals from 2014 are in favour of indians,waste deals for indians

5. Government is a joke and should know how much money they charge… A salary person even have to pay taxes even after taxes are paid already

6. PLZ LEARN TO SAY EUROPE OMG

7. So basically they cut it just for their childrens n grandchildrens 😆

8. Isme bhi kisi muslim ki glti btade

9. atleast palki will get more cars now

10. Most of the German cars are made in INDIA, yes it's for CBU and high end cars which are more than 3 crores…Only ultra luxury cars which are imported as CBU, which usually sell in small numbers. It will allow European manufacturers to sell more sports cars which may go up 1x every year as INDIA is the third largest economy….

11. Just wait for the FTA implementation if you have plan to buy a nice expensive car. It will be glorious. EU car companies in India are nervous about this deal because mass market is hesitating to buy cars now. Yes, insure about CKD but for CBUs, it’s going to be awesomely attractive. More luxury car brands will come in too, that means more options for CBUs/exotics. 2,50,000/- cars above 15 lakh car to be sold in India is going to be difficult. Anyway CBUs are more reliable. It’s going to be great!

12. This is one of the few countries where consumers don’t matter—only manufacturers protected by permits do. It’s not about competitiveness, comfort, or safety; it’s about control.

13. BJP's jumla again😂😂😂

14. Modi a real toughest negotiater❤

    75 percent people in india will not buy more than 16lakh worth of car…and that is limited 250000 units…this is great deal

15. Indian want to. Fuck its own people not cutting down tariff on European car's,india don't want reasonable price enjoy every citizen of india

16. So cheaper for rich indians that buy european cars. HAhah

17. Mother of all deals for what 😂

18. Price of cars not reduced! OMG!😱 How will I survive 😭

19. eu ko chutiya banao yojna 😅

20. If europe dont have infra to produce more…make those in india…

21. This is not mother of all deals…this is a scam….only 250 ? Think how fast that 250 will be booked…less than a min…what is this bakwas deal

22. Again JUMLA

23. We were expecting price cut on the Alfa Romeo car models.

24. One more Jumla

25. Palki Sharma is a big disappointment…
    Even in such one sided disadvantaged deal, she defends her Boss.

26. Mahindras will have to close their shop soon..
    Tata, Good Bye.. Khatam.

27. Car manufacturers will say that they do not expect price reduction on cars assembled here as that would straightaway impact sales over the next couple of years

28. Some stupid media and insta people don’t understand this and posting stupid things

29. A lot of people are crying in the comment section on behalf of the “common man”. I would argue that the common man does not owns car above 16 lakh price. Just for perspective, India’s per capita income is less than three lakh rupees per year.

30. How long will you run Viswaguru?? Bhag Bhag😅😅

31. Common man ko hamesha hi thenga milta hai..😂

32. JUMLA

33. No one jumped on to it. You media jumped on. It was clear from deal that only Cbu units will benefit. The good thing is we can see a lot of high end cars. Ex VW can sell their GTi at lower prices.

34. narinder surrender 😂😂

35. I don’t think there are any EU cars lesser than 15K, so I think that doesn’t hurt anything, in fact it’s the base price😅

36. So rolls royace will cost less and benefit the rich while rest of cars cost the same for middle class. The usual story across the globe middle class pays for the rest of the population

37. India tariffs all the countries high and expects them to tariff our products low

38. 😂😂😂yes I agree

39. Another Vishwaguru flop 😂

40. No worries we will shift to uae ❤

41. 🤣Politicians and super rich be like that cut is for our Children and Grand children buying Ferrari for the other middle class and rich you pay full duty😅

42. So made in India german cars were over charging in the cloud of tariff till now?! 😂 German car hype is quite something. Only for the rich.

43. What are these EU cheap cars? I live in Europe and we don’t pay any duties on European cars and all cars are super expensive…..

44. Only jhumlas

45. So basically it’s tax cuts for the rich. 😂😂😂

    Whenever we go it’s the same routine. 😂😂😂

46. Let's Really call Mother of all Deals because Indian car makers r protected.Be Indian buy Indian
