The first quarter figures for 2004 show an impressive spurt in sales in all sectors of the retail computer industry. While HCL had the highest sales figures, it was HP which had the highest figures for comsumer desktops.
The overall desktop segment in the first quarter of ’04 grew 24%, compared to the same period last year, to a total of 7,71,000 units. The commercial desktop segment grew 21% year-on-year to a total of 5,35,000 units, partly due to a surge in demand from the ITES and manufacturing sectors. HCL, HP and IBM grabbed the market in that order.
