For Ducati bikes, this means its entire portfolio is affected, with price hikes ranging from Rs. 68,500 to Rs. 2.8 lakh. As a result, there is now no Ducati on sale in India under Rs. 10 lakh, which wasn't the case earlier.

Verdict
Ducati's revised pricing in India highlights the direct impact of GST 2.0 on premium motorcycling. While the brand continues to offer one of the most diverse big-bike portfolios in the country, the higher taxation now places even its entry-level models firmly in the premium bracket. With no model below Rs. 10 lakh and flagship offerings edging closer to Rs. 45 lakh, Ducati's motorcycles remain aspirational but will likely face tougher competition from rivals offering comparatively better value. For enthusiasts, these hikes may delay purchase decisions, but Ducati's exclusivity and brand cachet still ensure strong desirability among its core audience.
