Telecom Lead India: Micromax of India and Maxtron of Indonesia have placed major orders with Zoom Technologies, China-based manufacturer of mobile phones and other mobile electronic products, for original design and manufacturing (ODM) of mobile phones.

Micromax, the number one domestic mobile phone brand in India, has placed order for 450,000 units in total of two models of GSM feature phones.

Approximately half of the order will be delivered in June 2012 and the other half within this summer. These two Micormax models are based on the Spreadtrum 6620 chipset. ZOOM is looking forward to producing up to 500,000 units per month for this prime customer from India.

Maxtron, the second largest domestic mobile brand of Indonesia, offered order for 100,000 units of 2.5G GSM feature phones, divided into two models, based on the more advanced Spreadtrum 6800 chipset.

Zoom has already delivered 50,000 units. The second batch is scheduled for delivery in June. If this initial order goes smoothly, ZOOM is expecting Maxtron's order to increase to 100,000 units per month.

"We are thrilled to win such large orders from the top level mobile brands of these countries. This is indeed a testimony of our design and manufacturing capabilities, and a recognition that ZOOM is among the best mobile handset ODM anchors of China," said Lei Gu, chairman & CEO of ZOOM.

Zoom Technologies' products are both exported globally and sold domestically in People's Republic of China.
