Acer India has strengthened its position in the country’s rapidly evolving PC market, securing the No. 1 spot in the commercial desktop category with a 32.87% market share, according to the IDC Quarterly Personal Computing Device Tracker Q2 2026.
The latest achievement marks an important milestone in Acer India’s growth journey and highlights the company’s expanding presence in the commercial computing segment. The strong market performance reflects Acer’s growing acceptance among enterprises and institutions, supported by its extensive product portfolio, partner ecosystem and continued focus on addressing the evolving technology requirements of Indian organisations.
Building on Strong Momentum from Q1 2026
The Q2 milestone follows an impressive performance by Acer India in the first quarter of 2026. According to the IDC India Quarterly Personal Computing Device Tracker Q1 2026, Acer secured the No. 2 position in India’s overall PC market with a 21.3% market share, reflecting strong growth across multiple product categories.
Acer’s performance in the institutional market was particularly notable. In the education segment, covering desktops, notebooks and workstations, the company ranked No. 1 with a 62.1% market share. It also secured the No. 1 position in the government segment with a 37.1% market share.
In the desktop category, Acer had already established a strong foundation during Q1, emerging as the leading player in education desktops with a 56.99% market share and government desktops with a 40.85% market share. The company also performed strongly in education notebooks, where it captured the No. 1 position with a 63.7% market share.
These results highlighted Acer’s growing capabilities across large institutional and public-sector technology deployments, providing a strong backdrop to its latest achievement as India’s leading commercial desktop brand.
Commenting on Acer’s latest market leadership milestone, Sanjeev Mehtani, Chief Sales Officer, Acer India, shared in a LinkedIn post, “Thrilled to share a major milestone! According to the latest IDC India Quarterly Personal Computing Device Tracker for Q2 2026, Acer has officially secured the #1 PC Brand position in India! This landmark achievement is a direct reflection of the unwavering trust our customers place in us every single day and the relentless effort of our exceptional channel partners, distributors, and enterprise network.

To our internal sales teams, ecosystem partners, and valued customers across every corner of the country: this victory belongs to all of us. Here’s to innovating faster, scaling higher, and setting new benchmarks together!” he stated.
Distribution Strength Supporting Nationwide Growth
A key factor supporting Acer India’s continued market expansion is its well-established distribution and channel infrastructure. In a market as geographically diverse as India, an efficient distribution network plays a critical role in ensuring product availability, faster market reach and seamless support for customers across metros as well as emerging markets.
Acer has built a strong ecosystem of distribution, channel and alliance partners that supports its presence across consumer and commercial markets. This infrastructure enables the company to address varied market requirements while strengthening its ability to serve enterprises, government organisations and educational institutions undertaking technology deployments at scale.
Expanding Reach Beyond Market Performance
Alongside its commercial success, Acer India has also been steadily strengthening its retail and customer footprint. The company recently achieved the milestone of 300 exclusive stores across more than 180 cities, reflecting its continued investment in expanding access to its products and strengthening its presence beyond major metropolitan markets.
The expansion of Acer’s exclusive retail network complements its established channel ecosystem and enables the company to reach a wider base of consumers and businesses across India. This broader market presence, combined with its growing commercial and institutional business, is contributing to Acer’s sustained growth momentum.
Strengthening the Foundation for Future Growth
Over recent years, Acer has focused on building a balanced presence across consumer, gaming, commercial and institutional computing categories while also investing in next-generation technologies, including AI-powered PCs and advanced computing solutions.
The latest No. 1 ranking in the commercial desktop segment adds another significant milestone to this journey. More importantly, it reflects the strength of Acer’s broader market strategy—combining product innovation, customer trust, channel partnerships and an expanding nationwide presence.
With consecutive achievements across the overall PC, education, government and commercial desktop segments, Acer India is continuing to build a stronger position in the country’s technology ecosystem. As businesses and institutions increasingly invest in modern digital infrastructure, the company is well positioned to build on this momentum and further strengthen its leadership across India’s PC market.
