Now Samsung will make laptops in India, preparations to set up a new manufacturing unit in Greater Noida factory

South Korean consumer electronics company Samsung has prepared to increase manufacturing in India. The company’s smartphones are already being produced in the country. Samsung can also make laptops in its factory in Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh from next month. This will give a boost to the Make in India scheme of the Central Government. Under this scheme, incentives are given for electronics manufacturing.

According to a media report, Samsung has prepared to set up a new laptop manufacturing unit in the Greater Noida factory that produces smartphones. This unit will have the capacity to manufacture 60 thousand to 70 thousand laptops annually. In this report, quoting a source, it has been said that this unit will be started next month. This objective is to increase manufacturing in the country. Minister for Electronics and Information Technology Rajeev Chandrashekhar said that the new rule will ensure that reliable systems and products are used in the country.

Let us tell you that, a few months ago, the government had approved the Production Linked Incentive Scheme 2.0 with an incentive of Rs 17 thousand crore to promote manufacturing of i-hardware like laptops and tablets in the country. It is expected to produce products like personal computers, servers, laptops and tablets worth about Rs 3.35 crore in 6 years.
