Hero MotoCorp had in February this year said the inclusion of an OBD device in new two-wheelers — required under the BS6 Phase 2 emission norms — would lead to a modest price increase of 1-2%. The updated norms aim to tighten carbon emission standards in India by enabling real-time monitoring and improved diagnostic capabilities.

"There is going to be a marginal price increase of 1-2 per cent because of the additional hardware that would be installed in the products. That would be valid across the industry,” Vikram Kasbekar, Hero MotoCorp Executive Director (Operations), had been quoted as saying in a Business Standard report.
