Samsung has grown over the years and the secret of this is filling the gaps in the society by bringing innovations in their technology. Samsung is a South Korean global company but in India we feel that it is an Indian company. Not only is Samsung ‘Making in India’ but also ‘Making for India’ which touches core of the heart.”[/notification]
