JLR is in discussions with a consortium of banks for the financing, which may be arranged with a term of four years, though details may change, people familiar with the matter told the publication.
This move comes as Indian firms such as Reliance Industries and Greenko Energy Holdings’ founders also seek foreign funding amid improving domestic liquidity.
Recently, JLR announced an investment of £65m ($81.10m) to upgrade its special paint facilities worldwide.
The initiative is designed to cater to the increasing consumer demand for customised luxury vehicles and to reduce the environmental footprint of its production processes.
