Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw recently shared a video showcasing his use of a completely India-made laptop. This laptop is designed and manufactured by VVDN Technologies. In the video, the company's CEO, Puneet Agarwal, explains that the laptop's hardware, motherboard, mechanics, body, chassis, and software are all manufactured in India. This is being seen as a significant achievement for the government's 'Make in India' initiative and its push to boost electronics manufacturing.
Internationally Standard Laptop
While the video didn't delve into highly technical specifications, the company claims the laptop meets international standards. According to information available on VVDN Technologies' official website, the company provides entry-level laptop solutions to various technology brands.
Information on another laptop model from the company reveals a 14-inch display, an Intel Celeron processor, 8GB RAM, and 256GB SATA SSD storage. This laptop runs on Windows 11 and is designed to cater to educational, business, and other essential needs.
VVDN Technologies Doesn't Sell Laptops Under its Own Brand
VVDN Technologies primarily engages in large-scale laptop manufacturing but doesn't market laptops under its own brand. The company operates on a white-labeling model, manufacturing laptops and supplying them to various brands, who then market them under their own branding. This model could play a crucial role in boosting production and local manufacturing within India.
Boosting Electronics Manufacturing in India
In recent years, the Indian government has implemented numerous schemes and policies to rapidly improve the electronics manufacturing sector. Policies such as the PLI (Production Linked Incentive) scheme, tax incentives to boost domestic manufacturing, and invitations to foreign companies to manufacture in India, are playing a significant role in this growth.
The completely India-made laptop manufactured by VVDN Technologies is considered a significant example of the success of these government policies. It is expected that the demand for India-made laptops and other electronic devices will increase in the coming years, contributing to the nation's self-reliance.
