India’s traditional PC market, including desktops, notebooks, and workstations, declined by 11.7 percent year-on-year (YoY) in Q32022 (July-September) after eight consecutive quarters of growth despite strong shipments of 3.9 million units. All segments declined except government, which grew 91.5 percent YoY as government orders materialized, resulting in strong growth for the third consecutive quarter. While the desktop and workstation categories grew by 23.4 percent and 17.6 percent YoY respectively, the notebook category declined by 19.5 percent YoY. Demand for notebooks has softened across segments, forcing sellers to clear inventory, a new report claimed Thursday.

According to new data from the International Data Corporation (IDC) Quarterly Computer Device Tracker worldwide, the consumer sector shipped 2.1 million units with online sales helping to pick up momentum at the end of September. However, that was not enough to prevent a 10.9 percent YoY decline. Similarly, the commercial sector was impacted by a delay in enterprise orders as well as muted SME sentiment, resulting in a 12.5 percent decline YoY.
