Tata Motors’ UK subsidiary Jaguar Land Rover said it sold 6,183 units of its vehicles to customers in FY25 in India, its highest-ever in its 17 years of operation in the country and recording 40 per cent annual growth.

Wholesale volumes, or sales to dealers, reached 6,266 units, up 39% year-on-year.

The maker of Range Rover and Defender said it has witnessed a strong growth trajectory, with annual retail sales more than doubling in the last two years. In the fourth quarter of FY25, it reported retail sales of 1,793 units and wholesales of 1,710 units, respectively, with growth of 110 per cent and 118 per cent on year.

The sustained demand for its entire product range throughout the year has been instrumental in driving this consistent growth and setting new sales records, it said in a statement.

In FY25, Defender was the highest-selling model, with 90 per cent growth, followed by locally manufactured Range Rover and Range Rover Sport, at 72 per cent and 42 per cent growth, respectively. The locally manufactured Range Rover and Range Rover Sport were key drivers of this growth, while the Defender continued to sustain its leadership position in its category, the company said.

“With a strong performance in FY25, JLR India has successfully established its Range Rover and Defender brands as one of the most desirable luxury SUVs for India’s discerning clientele,” it said.

JLR India had outpaced the luxury car industry with its robust growth in retail and wholesales, said Rajan Amba, Managing Director, JLR India, adding, “This success is a testimony to our strong brands, a focus on ‘customer love’ and a product portfolio with unparalleled design, unmatched capability, and impeccable luxury.”

“The constant support from our retail partners and the commitment of JLR teams in India and the UK have been instrumental in driving this growth story. We’re committed to continuing this momentum in FY26, driven by curated product offerings and exceptional client experience.”
