There is no information on how many bookings the company was able to garner on the 12th of August, the only day when the vehicle was supposedly available on its original price, however according to the notification the price revision is effective from the 12th of August too. Perhaps since the response was overwhelming, the company might have decided to cash in the situation. What is your opinion regarding this price increase, let us know with your comments.
