Chinese computer giant Lenovo on Tuesday said it is planning to launch its $200 (about Rs 8,000) personal computer in India soon.

"We will launch the product in China first and after getting the feedback we will roll out the device in the Indian market," Lenovo Group USA president and chief executive officer William J Amelio said on the the sidelines of India Economic Summit.

The device would be Internet enabled, he said, refusing to divulge details of the timeline of the launch.

The company is mulling over exporting notebooks from its Baddi plant in Himachal Pradesh.

Amelio also asked the government to provide a uniform tax regime so that it creates a favourable environment for companies like Lenovo to do business in India.
