BANGALORE: Samsung India on Thursday launched its Eye Fresh Technology (EFT) and Magic Green Slim monitors in the Indian market. EFT monitors are available in two sizes, 15 inches and 17 inches. They are differentiated by their magic green technology. The monitors have a vital coating on the rear that emits anions and far infrared rays that serve to make the environment fresh, relax the human body and ease the strain on human eyes.

Samsung Deputy Managing Director, Ravinder Zutshi, said it was a simultaneous launch in Korea and China. The company would invest $20 million during this year for new activities. It had already invested $150 million since 1996, including $20 million on research and development.

Samsung had a sales turnover of Rs. 6,300 crore last year, of which IT business accounted for 20 per cent. The overall growth this year was expected to be around 20 per cent.

Samsung's IT business Vice-President, Sanjay Sharma, said the company expected a 50 per cent growth in its CDT monitor business this year.
