Mumbai:
D-Link Corporation, the Taiwan-headquartered multinational,
expects sales of its Indian operations to cross $200 million
in the next five years. D-Link Corporation chief financial
officer A P Chen says the goal can be achieved on account
of several factors.
The
Indian networking and communications market is expected
to grow at a rate of over 25 per cent in the next few
years and the convergence of data, voice and video has
increased the spectrum of D-Link''s business.
D-Link
India has recently launched high-end switching products
that will help the company penetrate the large enterprise
market estimated at Rs 1,500 crore. D-Link India''s R&D
and software division is developing its own IPRs to
manufacture products for domestic as well as global
markets.
D-Link''s
business process outsourcing division should witness
robust growth as the business of all English-speaking
countries under D-Link Corporation''s fold will be transferred
to D-Link India.
D-Link
Corporation is also looking at outsourcing work to its
Indian subsidiary in other areas like return material
authorisation and manufacturing. D-Link Corporation
spends around $300 million every year in outsourcing.
D-Link
Corporation is a world-class manufacturing company and
has seven state-of-the-art facilities one in
Taiwan, two in China, three in India and one in the
US. It has a strong worldwide presence in networking,
internetworking, wireless LAN, digital home, bluetooth
and broadband products and a well-established global
distribution network with 29 sales offices in 21 countries.
