CHANDIGARH: Samsung India is aiming for a 200 per cent growth in its LCD monitor sales this year and is enhancing production capacity at its manufacturing facility at Noida (UP) to meet the scaled up demand.

"The manufacturing capacity for LCD monitors is being doubled from 2.5 lakh units per annum last year to around 5 lakh units per annum this year," company's Vice President (IT) Sanjay Sharma told reporters here.

He said the company expects LCD monitors to contribute 35 per cent value to their total monitor sales this year.

Meanwhile, Samsung India today strengthened its colour monitor lineup by launching its 19 inch wide format LCD monitor in the domestic market.

The ultra wide screen of the monitor 940bw lets the user view two whole a4 size pages, side by side, making it an "ideal monitor" for stock market brokers, BPOs, convergence applications and graphic designers, another senior company official said.

"The company plans to introduce wide format (16:10 aspect ratio) LCD monitors in 20 inch and 21 inch screen sizes in the third quarter of this year," Samsung India Deputy Managing Director Ravinder Zutshi said.
