Dayanidhi Maran today said that he agreed with Dell CEO Michael Dell that the tax structure in India was very high. Dell had said on Tuesday that at 25 per cent of the cost of PCs, tariffs in India were very high, preventing investment from coming to India.
Maran said Dell was going to invest $19 billion in China and Vietnam over the next few years, and India was losing out on this investment.
“I want to do with PCs what I did with mobile phones. We brought a zero-duty regime in the manufacture of mobile phones. We will do that with PCs too, I am speaking to the PMO and the finance minister,” Maran said.
