"In this year, we are expecting to grow our overall business by 20 percent. Our growth driver will be our strong portfolio of home appliances," LG Electronics India Managing Director Soon Kwon told PTI New Delhi.
He said contributions from refrigerators are expected to increase to Rs. 5,300 crore in this year compared to Rs. 4,570 crore in 2012.
"We are the market leader in home appliances division and we have a very robust product portfolio. We will continue to be a strong performer in this segment," Kwon said.
The company is, however, expecting an over 30 percent fall in CRT television segment, he added.
Asked about revenue for last year, Kwon said: We will announce the detailed results in next one week.
It will be a very very minimal growth in low single digit.
