Threats:

The Indian Automobile Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 9.5 percent amounting to Rs. 13,008 million by 2010

The liberalization policies followed by the Indian government had been inviting foreign investors and manufacturers to participate in the car market in India.

It is expected that by 2030, the Indian car market will be the 3rd largest car market across the globe.

Though Land Rover sales have been softening in some markets especially in Europe, on a six month basis Land Rover sales have gone up over 2007 globally, mainly because of higher volume of sales in Russia and China.In June 2008 Jaguar was sold 3836units in West Europe as compared to 2924units sold in June 2007. It was a 31% increase.
