"In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, India's transformation into the world's fourth-largest economy is backed by a booming tech ecosystem. I am also confident that India's laptop leasing market is expanding rapidly and would surpass all projections," says Baldwa. "We are living in a country that has 40% youth population, over 63 million MSMEs - contributing about 30% of GDP, world's 3rd largest start-up eco-system with more than 160,000 ventures--including 120 unicorns.

Post-COVID, spending patterns have shifted--cost-efficiencies and savings are now among top priorities. Leasing delivers both, without compromising on technology or service." Globally, the laptop leasing market alone was valued at approximately USD 151.1 billion in 2024 and is forecasted to reach USD 200.7 billion by 2033 - growing at a CAGR of 3.07%. Drivers of this growth include the rise of remote work, online education, and increasing awareness of sustainable practices. The United States and Europe continue to dominate the sector, with strong corporate adoption and support for circular economy principles. However, the path is not without challenges. Rapid technological advancements require companies to frequently upgrade their inventory, while managing logistics, maintenance, and product lifecycle efficiently. Additionally, competition from OEMs and online rental platforms is intensifying, putting pressure on margins and service differentiation.
