MUMBAI: Aiming to foray into the steadily growing mobile market in India and encash its success, IT hardware company Pantel Technologies is all geared up to launch three android smartphones in the market next month.
The company, which started operations in March 2012, is aiming to sell around 50,000 to 60,000 smartphones every month. It is already manufacturing tablet PCs and sold over five lakh devices in a year.
Pantel Technologies MD Vijender Singh told agencies, “We will launch three smartphones in the second week of June. The devices will be in the range of Rs 7,000 to Rs 15,000. We have tied up with BSNL to offer attractive data plans for the phones also. We already have an arrangement with BSNL for our tablets.”
The soon to be launched handsets are of third generation (3G), have Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean) operating system and 1GHz processor.
The company is also stated to be working on a fourth generation (4G) device that will be launched around December this year.
Entering the budget smartphone market, Pantel will face some stiff competition from established brands like Micromax, Karbonn, Lava, Spice, Xolo, Zen and more.
