**New Delhi, [Date]** – Mahindra & Mahindra is offering significant savings on its popular Scorpio SUV through a tax-free scheme available exclusively to the Canteen Stores Department (CSD). The initiative aims to boost sales by reducing the effective tax rate from 28% to 14% for CSD customers.

This translates to potential savings of up to ₹1.80 lakh depending on the variant. For example, the Scorpio Classic S9 variant’s ex-showroom price is ₹13,86,600 for civilian buyers, but only ₹12,06,045 through CSD, representing a saving of over ₹1.8 lakh. Similar savings are available across the Scorpio’s 19 variants. The Scorpio N Z8 D AT 2WD 7 STR variant, for example, sees a saving of ₹1,71,933 in taxes.

The offer includes a range of Scorpio models, including the Scorpio Classic and Scorpio N, boasting features like a 5-star Global NCAP safety rating, engine options from 1997cc to 2184cc, six airbags, hill hold assist, alloy wheels, and a digital driver display. The vehicles are available with manual and automatic transmissions.

Mahindra’s move underscores the growing trend of automakers utilizing tax benefits and discounts to stimulate sales. The Scorpio’s popularity, combined with the substantial savings offered through the CSD, is expected to attract significant interest.
