The first quarter of 2008-09 saw Dell post an impressive growth of 99% over the previous year. This comes at a time when the economy is reeling and the slowdown has forced companies to resort to cost-cutting to remain competitive.
Michael Dell who was on a trip to India to launch the latest line of Latitude business notebooks in India said 'Dell has fared tremendously in the last one year. On the global scale, we grew by about 50% faster than the industry in the last nine months alone." Dell also reported 70 to 80% growth in the number of units sold in India as well.
Speaking on the occasion, Michael Dell also touched upon the global importance of India for Dell. Dell has 13,000 employees in India - a number second only to the United States. In the commercial business segment, Dell is the market leader here. They would like to replicate the success of the commercial division with the Home and Small business division as well for sure.
Also speaking on the occasion was Mr. Paul-Henri Ferrand, the President of the Asia Pacific region. When asked about the introduction of Dells Alienware line of highly-customizable, high-end systems in India, Ferrand confirmed that India was not on the Alienware radar at least for the time being as the current XPS series fills the high-end void pretty well.
As for the new products launched, more on that story here.
