Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) India is targeting to double its business in the country within the next 3-4 years, driven by plans to expand its product portfolio and increase its sales network. The company reported a record retail sales of 6,183 units in fiscal year 2025, marking a 40% increase from the previous year.
Rajan Amba, Managing Director of JLR India, stated that the company has witnessed a better growth rate than the rest of the domestic luxury car industry over the last few years and expects to maintain this momentum. “We’re meeting a demand that isn’t being fulfilled, and we haven’t even hit our peak running speed,” Amba said.
Expansion Plans
The automaker plans to double its sales network to around 50 outlets by 2030. Currently, JLR has 25 authorized outlets across 21 cities in India. New dealerships are expected to open in places like Rajkot, Goa, and Nagpur.
Product Strategy
JLR India aims to make its brand more aspirational by investing in ‘halo’ models and introducing brand extensions of existing nameplates. The company also plans to offer more personalized touches on its vehicles. The future product lineup will include both battery electric vehicles and internal combustion engine models.
Electric Vehicle Plans
The company is planning to introduce various models, including the Range Rover BEV, in the Indian market. Currently, JLR India sells models such as Range Rover, Range Rover Sport, Range Rover Velar, Range Rover Evoque, Defender, Discovery, and Discovery Sport.
Market Outlook
Amba is optimistic about the growth prospects of the luxury car market in India, predicting that annual luxury car sales could double in the next 4-5 years due to increasing wealth and entrepreneurship. “JLR India has been a beneficiary of this growth over the last two years, and we expect to continue benefiting from it,” he added.
The company’s parent business, JLR, has lined up an investment of 18 billion pounds over a five-year period, which will be funded by operational cash flows. JLR aims to develop individual growth strategies for its four brands: Jaguar, Range Rover, Discovery, and Defender.
