Kia's October 2026 customer programme lists benefits across Carnival, Carens Clavis, Sonet, Syros, Carens and selected electric models. The highest published total is up to Rs. 1.70 lakh on the Carnival, while the Clavis ICE reaches up to Rs. 95,000.
The numbers combine different support types and do not apply automatically to every buyer. Availability is linked to model, variant, stock, city and eligibility.

No headline benefit on every model
The latest Seltos does not carry the same published cash or exchange support in the referenced programme. This is a reminder that a brand-wide festive campaign does not mean every popular model is discounted.
What may be inside the maximum benefit?
The total can include cash, exchange, loyalty, scrappage and corporate support. Ask the dealer to mark each component you qualify for. Do not count an exchange bonus without separately evaluating the old car.
ICE versus EV offer comparison
A larger discount does not automatically make one powertrain cheaper to own. Compare the post-discount on-road price, charging installation, insurance, annual kilometres and realistic energy cost.
Old inventory checks
Decode manufacturing month from the VIN and inspect tyres, battery, paint and odometer before registration. Compare equipment with the current model year and negotiate according to inventory age.
Five documents to request
- Itemised on-road quotation.
- Written scheme breakup.
- VIN and manufacturing month.
- Insurance coverage sheet.
- Refund and delivery terms on the booking receipt.
Compare dealers without changing the specification
Ask at least two authorised dealers for the same variant, colour and manufacturing year. A lower quote on a different model year or without the same insurance coverage is not directly comparable. Keep exchange valuation outside the new-car calculation so a generous-looking trade-in does not hide a weaker vehicle discount.
Validity and source
Offers can change and may be limited by city and stock. Figures were checked on 4 October 2026 against Auto Punditz's Kia October programme report. Confirm the final scheme directly with an authorised dealer before booking.
