With the new GST rates coming into effect on September 22, 2025, new vehicles are set to become cheaper. Leading auto companies have already announced price reductions. But what about second-hand cars? Spinny, a major used car sales platform, has stepped in with a major announcement that could benefit buyers even before the GST changes.

Spinny Offers Discounts on Used Cars

Spinny, a platform for buying and selling pre-owned vehicles, has announced price cuts of up to ₹2 lakh for buyers and up to ₹20,000 for sellers per vehicle. This move aims to make the used car market more attractive and maintain strong buyer demand.

It’s important to note that GST on used vehicles remains unchanged at 18%, unlike new vehicles where GST rates are being adjusted:

• Small cars and two-wheelers: 18%

• Large and luxury vehicles: 40%

• Auto components (parts): 18%

Why Spinny Adjusted Prices

According to the Economic Times Auto, Spinny clarified that the adjustments are not due to changes in GST for used vehicles, but to ensure transparent pricing amid broader changes in the auto sector. This step provides immediate benefits for customers and reinforces confidence in the pre-owned vehicle market.

Hanish Yadav, Senior Vice President and Business Head, Spinny, said:
"At Spinny, the customer always comes first. Whether it’s price, quality, or the buying or selling experience, transparency and trust are non-negotiable."

What This Means for Buyers

While new car prices will drop due to GST 2.0, buyers of second-hand vehicles can also enjoy attractive deals through Spinny. For those planning to purchase pre-owned cars soon, this is an opportunity to save significant amounts while ensuring a safe and trustworthy buying experience.
