So here’s food for thought:
I “PRACTICALLY” bought my 450X in Mumbai @ Approx On-Road Price (1,53,000), but “TECHNICALLY” that includes FAME II Incentives (43,500) + State Susidy (10,000).
Now here’s the question :
Q : What’s the “right” price of selling our Ather 450 / 450X? Considering many of us would be selling their current 450 / 450X & upgrading to the New Ather 450X Gen 3.
[[ Solution 1 ]] : I consider 1,53,000 and reduce price from here depending on the age, km, condition, etc.
But then I loose my subsidy of 53,000 as it can be availed only once per individual.
So now when I buy the new Ather 450X Gen 3, I’m not eligible for the incentives & have to pay additional 53,000.
[[ Solution 2 ]] : I consider 1,53,000 + 53,000 - (age, km, condition, etc)
But this price would be still be more than the current price of the new Ather 450X Gen 3 “with subsidy”.
So a potential pre-owned buyer would rather go for a new Ather with subsidy.
We need to have proper guidelines on the same as a huge wave of owners would now be selling off their Athers. One wrong move and the price of all the Athers in the pre owned market goes for a toss.
