INDIA CAR SALES RISE 22%

India's local car sales posted their biggest percentage gain in two years in February because of an improvement in retail financing and of a lower sales base in the year-earlier period.

Sales rose 22% to 115,386 cars from 94,757 a year earlier, data issued Monday by the Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers showed. The sales growth is the first since September 2008 and the highest since February 2007.
