New Delhi, Oct 16 (TIWN) After witnessing a gradual recovery in sales, Jaguar Land Rover India is hopeful yet guarded about the festive season response.

In a conversation with IANS, the company’s President and MD Rohit Suri said that a gradual recovery was triggered in Q2FY21.

“The pandemic presented everyone with some unprecedented challenges,” Suri said.

“While the first quarter of this financial year was particularly challenging, there has been a gradual recovery in Q2 for the sector at large and for us, as well. We are cautiously optimistic about this recovery and hope this carries into the festive season and beyond.”

Apart from the “cautiously optimistic” stand, the company has gone on a product offensive with the launch of Defender SUV.

So far, under the Land Rover brand the company had the Discovery product range and Range Rover product pillar available in India.
