Car maker Toyota said that it is going to increase the prices of its entire range of cars in Indian market by 1.5 percent. The new prices will come into effect from September 1stto compensate the losses due to rupee depreciation.

He also added that the hike has not yet been finalized but it will be somewhere around 1.5 percent. The company is going to increase the prices of its entire range and the new prices will come into effect from September 1st.
