Korean electronics major Samsung today said it will introduce ultra high definition television sets in India by the end of next year after it rolls out the technology globally in 2013.
Samsung has already developed the technology for ultra high-definition television (UHDTV), which has a minimum resolution of 3840x2160 pixels or 8.3 megapixels.
Meanwhile, to tap the ongoing festive season, Samsung India Electronics today introduced a new LED TV -- 75ES9000, priced at Rs 7.5 lakh.
"Initially we are targeting to sell 1,000 units of the 75ES9000 in the next 6-12 months... We are expecting to sell 4.5 lakh units of flat panel TVs during the festive season this year," Samsung India Electronics Vice President (Home Appliances) K Mahesh said.
The company is looking to sell 15 lakh units of flat panels this year, of which LED TVs will contribute 80 per cent, he added.
According to Samsung India's estimates, the country's overall TV market is expected to be around one crore units this year, out of which flat panels are likely to contribute 42 lakh units.
