Royal Enfield’s beloved Bullet 350 has seen a marginal price hike across most of its variants in India. Since its relaunch in September 2023 with the J-series platform, the Bullet 350 has become one of the most sought-after motorcycles for both retro lovers and daily riders. As of June 2025, prices have increased by up to ₹2,500, affecting all variants except the newly introduced Battalion Black.
Let’s break down the updated pricing and see if the value proposition still holds.

No Mechanical Changes: Same Engine, Same Power
Despite the price bump, no mechanical upgrades have been made to the Royal Enfield Bullet 350.
- Engine: 349cc, Single-cylinder, SOHC
- Power Output: 20.2 bhp @ 6,100 rpm
- Torque: 27 Nm @ 4,000 rpm
- Transmission: 5-speed manual
- Platform: J-series (shared with Classic 350 and Hunter 350)
This powertrain is known for its refined performance, less vibration, and a comfortable cruising experience, especially when compared to its older UCE predecessor.
Battalion Black: The Value Pick
The Battalion Black variant, launched recently, has been exempted from this price hike and still retails at around ₹1.75 lakh (ex-showroom). With its blacked-out design, military-inspired look, and updated parts, it stands out as the most value-for-money choice post the price revision.
Why the Price Hike?
While Royal Enfield hasn’t issued an official reason, minor price revisions like this are generally attributed to:
- Rising input and manufacturing costs
- Fluctuating raw material prices
- Market demand adjustments
It’s also common in the two-wheeler market for brands to revise prices at regular intervals to align with competition and maintain margins.
Should You Still Buy the Bullet 350?
If you’re eyeing the Bullet 350, this price hike is not a dealbreaker. The hike is relatively minor, and the bike retains all the charm, reliability, and performance it has always promised. The Battalion Black is particularly appealing if you want a modern retro bike at a price below ₹1.8 lakh.
Final Thoughts
The Royal Enfield Bullet 350 continues to ride strong in 2025 — and even with the slight price bump, it remains one of the most iconic and beloved motorcycles in India. For fans of timeless design and thumping performance, this machine still holds great value. And if you’re planning to buy one soon, now might be the time — before the next hike rolls in.
