Educational institutions increasingly embrace TV rental for digital classrooms as smart panels, interactive features and hybrid learning surge in 2026.
In our 33 years serving Indian educational and corporate organizations, we’ve noticed a striking shift—rental of high resolution TVs for classrooms has surged by over 23 percent in education, highlighting a powerful opportunity for schools, training centers and digital campuses. Rentals are easing technology access while nurturing flexibility in academic planning.
Educational institutions face frequent curriculum changes, sudden need for classroom tech during assessment seasons and infrastructure delays. These challenges disrupt learning continuity and budget planning while stretching teacher resources.
In this article you’ll understand how renting TVs solves these issues with up to 58 percent short term flexibility, seamless upgrades to latest display technology and strategic deployment aligned with academic cycles in Delhi, Bengaluru, Mumbai and beyond.
Deep Dive
Recent market data shows IT rentals in education grew by 23 percent in 2026, driven by e learning, hybrid classrooms and digital literacy initiatives. Laptops and AV tools remain the most rented items, with TVs and displays taking central stage due to their visual impact.
Available specs now include 4K resolution panels with VA or QLED technologies, delivering brightness, deeper contrast and wide viewing angles essential for classrooms. Many smart displays offer multiple HDMI ports, USB connectivity and smooth casting via AirPlay or Chromecast—enabling seamless integration with laptops, tablets and external resources.
Screen sizes spanning 43 to 75 inches fit different room layouts. A 43 inch display suits small classrooms, while 75 inches works well in auditoriums where visibility from the back matters. Best practice suggests placement at 1.5 to 2.5 times the diagonal screen distance to avoid eye strain.
Interactive TV screens and flat panels offer touch or stylus input, transforming passive lectures into engaging sessions with diagrams, annotations and live quizzes. These features align well with initiatives like Samagra Shiksha and DIKSHA-based content delivery systems. Rentals make upgrading to such modern interactive tools easy and risk free.
Here’s how rentals compare with purchases for educational setups:
- Short term rentals (few days to 3 months) account for over 58% of total market share in 2026, ideal for special programs or exam prep labs.
- Long term rentals covering 6 months to 3 years deliver tech refresh cycles for institutions without capital expenditure.
- Education sector demand rose 23% year over year, reflecting a trend toward experiential, digital teaching.
Across Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Pune and Hyderabad, versatile rental models let schools match deployment to term schedules, training sessions or board exam preparation, preserving flexibility and delivering the latest display technology when needed most.
