JLR India announced its best ever nine-month retail sales of 4,390 units representing robust growth of 23% YTD FY25 with the first nine-month retail sales already matching the full year sales of FY24.Q3 FY25 retails at 1,177 units saw a slight decline of 4% Y-o-Y due to the planned run-out of older models across certain name plates.
