Lenovo Emerges Market Leader as India PC Market Grows 49% in Q2 2019

Aug. 14, 2019

The Chinese tech giant saw a massive YoY growth of 283 percent, largely on account of a single contract from the government-owned Electronics Corporation of Tami Nadu (ELCOT). Lenovo also fared well in the education, business, financial services and insurance sectors, as the overall commercial PC market grew by a whopping 108 percent during the period.Image Courtesy: IDC

The scene, however, was a little different in the consumer segment, with the company seeing a YoY decline of 14 percent, largely because of a slow response to‘back to school’campaigns. Lenovo also claimed that it enjoyed leadership position in the ultrabook category and experienced strong growth in the gaming segment with its‘Legion’ sub-brand.

Lenovo recently launched a complete range of ultra-slim PCs, including the AI-enabled Yoga S940. Earlier this quarter, the company also introduced the custom-to-order service in India, allowing customers to choose the configuration of their laptops based on their needs.
