The company has launched 36 Semi-knocked-units of ACs priced between Rs 45,400 and Rs 75,000 in the Indian market
Samsung India has announced the launch of its 2019 line-up of air-conditioners (ACs) in India. The company claims that the cooling capacity of these ACs can be adjusted in accordance to the number of people present in a room.
Company’s official statement read, “These new ACs with triple inverter technology have been designed carefully keeping in mind the consumers’ needs and expectations, which are faster cooling, less electricity consumption and uncompromised cooling even in hot summers of upto 54 degree Celsius.”
Ankur Kapoor, Deputy General Manager, Consumer Electronics Business, Samsung India, said, “Energy efficiency is one of the primary parameters for consumers while making purchasing decisions for air conditioners. Our latest offering with cutting-edge triple-inverter technology and best Warranty proposition makes us one of the most energy efficient and durable brands in the industry.”
It is to be noted here that Samsung does not enjoy a good market share in AC segment, as it does in the smartphone vertical. The rise of several local as well as international AC companies in the past has created severe competition for the Korea based company in India.
