Personal computers exports nearly triple in April-August

The initial success in smartphone manufacturing is gradually permeating into other electronic components and devices, with exports of laptops almost tripling in the April-August period of this financial year.

According to an analysis by the ministry of Commerce and Industry, exports of laptops to the top five markets increased to $ 102.6 million in April-August from $ 37 million in the same period of the previous year. The government’s support to the personal computer manufacturing through Production Linked Incentive (PLI) and other administrative steps have supported this surge, even though from a low base.
