Dell to invest USD 30 million in India

World’s largest maker of personal computers Dell has said that they would be investing to set up a manufacturing facility in Tamil Nadu.

The company would be investing as much as USD 30 million on this facility in the next five years. The plant is expected to be built on a sprawling 50-acre piece of land in a high-tech park just outside the state capital of Chennai.

Paul-Henri Ferrand, Dell’s vice president in South Asia spoke on these plans: “This benefits both Tamil Nadu and Dell, and we’re very appreciative of the cooperation and partnership between the government and our company. The state offers an exceptional workforce and unique strategic investment zone, along with easy proximity to a large base of current and potential Dell customers.”

Dell’s performance in the Indian market has been impressive as the company showed improvement of around 82% in their shipments in the Indian market in the most recent quarter. Market analysts claim that Dell has a market share of around 7% in India.
