Yes, I believe the GST cut is more impactful because it is structural and applies to all buyers across India. Discounts and offers are temporary, seasonal, or dealership-specific. But a tax cut permanently reduces the base price of the car. For example, a discount of ₹30,000 during Diwali is available only for a month. But the GST cut of ₹50,000 is applicable all year long. This creates a long-term impact on affordability.
