The sales of personal computers would grow at over 20 per cent during 2002-03 as against 15 per cent projected earlier, according to the latest estimates of the Manufacturer's Association of Information Technology (Mait).
As a result, for the first time, annual PC sales are expected to breach the two million mark during the current financial year.
Earlier projections had put the year-end figure at 1.9 million. The sales of personal computers had dropped 11 per cent to 1.65 million units during 2001-02, compared to the previous year.
"We have seen a lot of improvement in the performance of the domestic hardware sector. One of the major contributors is Reliance Infocomm," says Vinnie Mehta, executive director, Mait, adding
