Targeting sales of about four lakh units this fiscal, the maker of Thomson and brand televisions, Super Plastronics, will start rolling out TVs from its new facility this month end, a top said on Tuesday.

"The new facility at Noida in will be activated by the end of this month. Deliveries will start in the first week of next month. The expansion involved an outlay of about Rs 150 crore," told the media here.

Once the new unit starts production, Super Plastronics' annual production capacity will double to about 500,000 units, he added.

The company currently has three plants - in Jammu, Una in and Noida.

According to him, the company hopes to log a turnover of about Rs 600 crore this year, up from Rs 350 crore clocked last fiscal.

The company sells the Thomson brand TVs only through while is sold online and offline.

"We don't have any plans to alter that sales model," Marwah said.
