Acer is intensifying its efforts in the Indian PC market, aiming to increase its consumer PC market share from 15% to 20% by 2026, with gaming PCs playing a central role, according to Harish Kohli, president and managing director of Acer India. The company's push includes hosting the annual Predator League esports finals in New Delhi.
India's PC market is poised for strong growth, supported by the country's vast population and proactive government initiatives in digital transformation and local manufacturing. Despite India's population of 1.5 billion, the current annual PC sales volume is only around 15 million units, reflecting a penetration rate of roughly 10%, according to Harish Kohli, president and managing director of Acer India. This gap indicates a substantial opportunity for growth in both demand and production.
