Personal computer maker Lenovo India on Monday unveiled its ThinkPad X1, a premium product that is priced from Rs 90,000 onwards, mainly aimed at enterprise customers.

"ThinkPad X1 is a premium notebook, which ranges from Rs 90,000 onwards and is the world's slimmest thinkpad measuring less than 17 mm. The product will be available at retail outlets. However, our focus is enterprise customers as it a premium product," Lenovo India Managing Director Amar Babu said.

It also has scratch proof and spill proof designs with 10 hours battery power. "We have rapid recharge feature that recharges 80 per cent battery in just 30 minutes," he said.

The company aims to become number one vendor in the country and to achieve this it has to grow faster than the market, which grew at slightly more than 20 per cent in FY10,

he said.

"We achieved a growth rate of close to 60 per cent in FY10, which was three times more than the market growth. We aim to maintain and sustain this growth," he added.

Lenovo is planning to enhance its products range in the country and will launch tablet computer in India in next few months, he said.

"We have captured a double digit market share at 10 per cent in last quarter. Now we want to focus on growing faster, retaining our customers and become number one in next few years," he said.

Lenovo is also planning to increase its exclusive franchise outlets to 1,000 by the end of this year, he said.
