NOTE: Tata Motors is India's largest vehicle maker. It owns the luxury Jaguar and Land Rover brands and in July started deliveries of the Nano, the world's cheapest car.

Indian auto makers posted strong annual sales growth in November and analysts said maintaining momentum depended on sustained recovery, a day after India reported surprisingly strong economic growth.

Last week, Tata Motors reported a return to operating profit for its British Jaguar Land Rover unit, suggesting cost cuts were beginning to bear fruit and new models were attracting buyers.
