The Growth Of The Indian PC Market In Q3 2018 Increased By 20.2% Against The Q2 2018

In recent time, the research firm IDC revealed that the Indian PC market has increased by 20.2% to 2.71 million units in the Quarter 3 2018 compared to the second quarter of 2018. Reasons behind that may be due to strong growth in commercial and consumer segments.

In the Quarter 3 2018, HP occupied 30.7% of the market share and ranked at the first position. The next positions belonged to Dell with 22.9%, Lenovo with 21.3%, and Acer with 12.1%.

In September quarter, the quarter-on-quarter growth of the consumer PC market reached 33.9% with 1.45 million PCs shipped to India.

In addition to vendors, e-tailers are also a decisive factor impacting on the growth of the Indian PC market. The commercial PC market grew 7.5% in the Quarter 3 2018 to 1.25 million units against the previous quarter.
