The full story
The Defender 110 base model is the X-Dynamic HSE, from ₹1.07Cr ex-showroom; the top model is the X-Dynamic HSE P425, from ₹1.47Cr. That is ₹40.00L more.
The X-Dynamic HSE P425 adds frequency-selective dampers over the X-Dynamic HSE.
Top of the ladder is not top of the price list here: the X Turbo Petrol AT at ₹1.57Cr costs more.
3 trims sit between the two, so the jump is rarely how anyone actually buys.
With 5 trims the steps are too few to rank fairly, so the trade above is the whole story: the money buys the features, and whether that is worth it to you is the question the Defender 110 table below is there to answer.

Only the rows that differ. Most important first, and anything the top model gives up is marked, because a ladder is not always a straight climb.
