India has restricted imports of laptops, tablets and personal computers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

New Delhi: <\/b><\/p>\n

India has restricted imports of laptops, tablets and personal computers with immediate effect, according to a government notice on Thursday, in a bid to push local manufacturing.<\/p>\n

“Their import would be allowed against a valid licence for restricted imports,” the notice said.<\/p>\n

In April-June, electronics imports, which include laptops, tablets and personal computers, was $19.7 billion, up 6.25% year-on-year.<\/p>\n

“The move’s spirit is to push manufacturing to India. It’s not a nudge, it’s a push,” said Ali Akhtar Jafri, former director general at electronics industry body Manufacturers’ Association of Information Technology.<\/p>\n

Dell, Acer, Samsung, LG, Panasonic, Apple Inc, Lenovo and HP Inc are some of the key companies selling laptops in the Indian market and a substantial portion are imported from countries such as China.<\/p>\n
