Speaking on the partnership, J. V. Ramamurthy, President & COO, HCL Infosystems, said, "It has always been our endeavour to see a PC in every household even in the remotest parts of the country. In our commitment to sustain and support the cause of widespread PC adoption, we have today entered into a strategic tie-up with Ernakulam District Cooperative Bank and we are confident that our association will give immediate benefits to the potential buyers. The idea is to reach out to customers across India, who need computing devices but face problems with the unavailability of financial assistance."
"The strategic partnership with HCL Infosystems, pioneer in the Indian IT industry, will bring a revolution in the adoption of computing devices by masses. The scheme which we have introduced collectively is an endeavour to assist the potential customers in acquiring computing equipments for their own professional and/or personal use at a very affordable price. We are confident that this scheme will foster our vision of widespread PC adoption in the country," said Saseendran V. P., President, Ernakulam District Cooperative Bank.
