Jaguar Land Rover India has posted a strong growth of 45% in the first quarter of the year in the period of January to March 2016. The company sold 1000 units due to the high demand for the Land Rover Discovery Sport that was launched last year and the new Jaguar XE sedan that was launched at the Auto Expo in February this year. This growth is despite the Delhi Government banning the sale of cars and SUVs with engines over 2,000 cc.
