HP said it was for the first time the company was manufacturing such a wide range of laptops in India, with products such as HP EliteBooks, HP ProBooks and HP G8 series notebooks.

HP also expanded locally manufactured commercial desktops by adding various models of desktop mini towers, mini desktops, small form factor desktops and all-in-one personal computers.

“The proximity of the Flex facility to the Chennai port improves operational efficiency and ease of sourcing of raw materials for manufacturing laptops and other PC products,” the statement added.

Some of the products qualify under public procurement order of the Government and would be available on the Government e-Marketplace (GeM) portal to meet the demands of the government departments and other customers, the statement said.

HP India Market managing director Ketan Patel said, HP has partnered closely with India since it began its operations in the country. “As India made significant progress and emphasis on digital transformation, we have worked with the Government of India and state governments in their mission to empower lives of millions of citizens and enhance the communities’ quality of life.”

“Today’s announcement marks a significant step for HP India towards local manufacturing in line with the ‘Make in India’ program. We hope to play a meaningful role in fulfilling the dream of Atmanirbar Bharat, by expanding the scale and reach of our manufacturing operations,” he said.
