Leading consumer electronics brand Sony India today said the market size of laptops in the country is expected to expand by over 45 per cent to 25 lakh units in the current fiscal.

"The consumer notebook market in India stood 17 lakh units in 2010-2011 and it is expected to increase to 25 lakh units in the current fiscal," Tadato Kimura, General Manager, Marketing, Sony India, said here.

However, the market size of notebook does not include institutional sales.

The company plans to double its sales of notebooks from 2.5 lakh in last fiscal to 5 lakh notebooks, fuelled by growing acceptance of its Vaio range of laptops.

"We have an exciting product line-up of 62 models, a robust distribution network of 1,500 outlets and heavy marketing investment of Rs 50 crore to reach our business target of 5 lakh units in 2011-12," he said.
