industry experts and analysts predicting India's laptop
market to grow over 100 per cent this year, Toshiba
Singapore's Computer Systems Division and its Toshiba
Mobile Computing Partner HCL Infosystems, India's leading
IT enabler and integrator, have chalked out an aggressive
retail strategy to achieve significant market share in
the segment.

with HCL Infosystems, intends to expand its direct accounts
coverage, technical service centres, after-sales support
and dealer channel networks in the country. Also on the
anvil is significantly beefing up its retail presence
in India through its concept stores called 'shopToshiba'

markets given its current stable political climate
and business potential.
