Samsung may restart television production in India

Samsung India may restart television production in India after a year with the government scrapping import duty on the biggest component open cell panel, or displays.

The electronics company is about to sign a pact with contract manufacturer Dixon Technologies to manufacture television sets up to 55 inches in screen size. The company is evaluating options with other contract manufacturers to further expand local TV production in the country.

Samsung is also evaluating whether it can restart television production in its Chennai plant that was shut in October 2018 after the government imposed duty on open cell television panels. The company had then started importing finished television sets from its plant in Vietnam through the free trade agreement (FTA) route.

In September 2019, the Centre scrapped the five percent import duty on open cell panels. The display accounts for almost 65-70 percent of the production cost of LED televisions.

There are currently no domestic manufacturers of television panels, even though the government has been trying to push local production of this component.
