Jaguar Land Rover India has closed FY25 on a strong note, reporting its highest-ever annual performance since it began operations in the country 17 years ago. The brand registered 6,183 retail units during the fiscal year, marking a 40% jump compared to the previous year. Wholesale figures also rose significantly to 6,266 units, reflecting a 39% year-on-year increase.
Over the past two years, JLR India has more than doubled its annual retail sales, highlighting a consistent upward trend. The company also posted its best-ever quarterly results in Q4 FY25, with 1,793 retail and 1,710 wholesale units sold, translating to over 100% growth compared to the same period last year.

JLR India's record-breaking performance in FY25 was fuelled by strong demand across its entire vehicle lineup. Leading the charge was the Defender, which emerged as the brand's top-selling model with an impressive 90% growth over the previous year. The locally assembled Range Rover and Range Rover Sport also contributed significantly to the momentum, registering year-on-year growth of 72% and 42% respectively. This broad-based demand played a key role in pushing the brand to new heights in both retail and wholesale sales.
Building on its strong performance in FY25, JLR India has firmly positioned the Range Rover and Defender as aspirational choices among luxury SUV buyers in the country. The company’s focused ‘House of Brands’ approach has struck a chord with affluent customers, further strengthening its presence in the premium segment and enhancing its appeal among India’s growing base of high-net-worth individuals.

Rajan Amba, Managing Director, JLR India, said, “We are incredibly proud to announce our all-time best performance in FY25. JLR India has outpaced the luxury car industry with retail and wholesale growth of around 40% in the current year on the back of 81% year-on-year growth in FY24. 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. Our locally manufactured Range Rover and Range Rover Sport have been a key driver of this growth, while Defender continues to sustain its leadership position in its category. 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.”
