Here Maps & Here Drive+ not showing in Windows Store for Lumia 525 WP8.1. Why?

[Windows Central Question]

I have recently resetted my Lumia 525 due to some unavoidable reasons. After restart, Here Maps & Here Drive + were nowhere to be seen. Visited Windows store but couldn't find apps there either. Can some one give some reason or solution for this?

You have to get a link to the app to install it.

Use the links to install them

HERE Maps got successfully installed, but HERE Drive+ won't get installed, showing as not available (for Lumia 525 - India), as seen in the screenshot below:


Even sideloading older version of Drive+ XAP file from appx4fun gives the same error as Store connects to the internet to verify the app.

As mentioned in answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mobiledevices/forum/mdlumia-mdapps/drive-and-here-maps-lumia-525/c912c51f-f30d-4479-a512-f2ffa1fdad82 the apps are pulled due to some technical reason, lingering for several months now.

Any other workaround? Any help will be appreciated.
