Dell, the world's largest computer maker, is planning to set up a manufacturing facility in India."We have concluded that the time is right to consider a manufacturing site in India. We are looking for a location," Kevin Rollins, CEO of Dell, said today."The time is ripe for the second phase of our expansion in India. We are talking to the central government and state governments to set up a manufacturing site," Rollins added.Dell has seven manuacturing plants all over the world, and the Indian unit would be the eighth such facility.He said the manufacturing site would be selected on the basis of how good the logistics were in an area, able work force and co-operation the company can get from the local government.Rollins said the company has not decided on the time-frame for the manufacturing facility, but would like it to come up sooner than later.He also did not specify the investment that would go into the unit saying it was yet to be decided.
