About Microcenter India
A computer should feel like yours. Not a generic box from a big-box store. Not a refurb pulled off some shelf. A machine you actually built, or had built, to do the thing you bought it for. Render the project. Play the game. Ship the work.
That's the whole reason we exist.
What we do
We're an NVIDIA Certified System Integrator in Kolkata that builds and ships PCs across India. Custom gaming PCs. Prebuilt gaming PC catalogues for the ones that don't want to wait. Mini PC builds for cramped desks. Workstations for editors and AI artists. And every PC component you'd want for a PC build you do yourself: gaming CPU, computer motherboard, GPU, RAM, SSD, the cooler that's quieter than the one you have now. An ASUS computer notebook for the road. An ASUS ROG computer if you're going all-in. A desktop computer for the home office. A gaming computer desktop for the streamer in the family.
If you've been typing "computer shops near me" into Google, hoping for a shop where someone actually knows what an Intel Core i7 does and why your last build was bottlenecked, you've found it.
How we got here
Microcenter India started in May 2022, registered as Tanisi Infosolutions Private Limited, set up at Esplanade in central Kolkata. The same lane where the city's PC traders have done business for decades. We're publicly known as "Microcenter India: A TIPL Venture." We're not affiliated with the US chain Micro Center. People ask, so we say it upfront.
Two years in, we've shipped 96,000+ products across India, work with 1,560+ brands, and have 10,000+ customers who've come back for upgrades, second builds, or just to ask which gaming PC processor they should pick this time. Our Google rating is 4.9 from 2,300+ reviews. That number matters to us, because every one of those reviews is somebody who took thirty seconds out of their day to type "thanks."
The store, if you want to come by
4, Chittaranjan Avenue, Esplanade, next to Bow Barracks. Walking distance from Esplanade Metro. We keep working samples of most categories on the floor. Yes, you can plug your headphones into the monitor you're considering. No, we won't rush you.

Custom builds, the way they should work
Most computer shops will sell you a desktop computer and call it done. We'd rather ask what you're doing with it first.
Want a custom gaming PC? Tell us your games, your monitor, your budget, and we'll spec it. Want to build your own PC? We'll walk you through the gaming PC build component by component. The right gaming CPU. The right computer motherboard. The cooler that won't sound like a hairdryer. Why one PSU is fine and another will haunt you. Want a prebuilt gaming PC instead? The catalogue lists 4K rigs, editing workstations, and a great gaming PC for the budget-conscious. Every one of them was assembled by the same hands.
We're a PC builder website with a real shop attached. If you'd rather build a computer online, build CPU online, or build PC online, the configurator's there. If "build my PC" means "I have no idea where to start," that's fine too. Message us and we'll start from your monitor.
We're a custom PC builder first. A custom PC catalogue second. Same standard either way.
Pricing, no games
The PC price stack is on the site, in rupees, updated when costs shift. You can see the desktop computer price for an entry-level office build. The cost of desktop computer setups for working from home. Gaming computer price tiers from budget to flagship. Gaming PC price points by use case. Gaming PC cost and gaming computer cost for fully built systems. Computer full set price bundles with peripherals. Personal computer price tiers for first-time buyers.
Going component-deep: PC motherboard price ranges. Cost of CPU across generations. Desktop CPU and gaming PC processor pricing side by side. The CPU for gaming PC you've been eyeing, listed, comparable, no "request a quote" form between you and the number.
Who we're for
PC gamers who care about frame consistency. Streamers needing a rig that won't pop a fan mid-broadcast. Editors and 3D artists running overnight renders. Small businesses kitting out office desktop computer fleets. First-time builders who just learned what RAM is and want someone honest answering their questions.
The best PC is the one that does what you actually need. We help you find that one.
Frequently asked questions
Are you affiliated with Micro Center in the United States?
No. We're an independent Indian business operated by Tanisi Infosolutions Private Limited. People often ask because of the name overlap, so we mention it directly. Different company, different country, different product range.
Do you ship across India?
Yes. Online orders ship pan-India from our Kolkata operation. Custom PC builds are tested and packed before they leave, including a stress test on every gaming PC build that goes out. If you're in Kolkata, you can also pick up from the Esplanade store.
How long does a custom PC take to build?
Three to five working days for most builds, from order confirmation to ready-to-ship. A complex liquid-cooled custom gaming PC or a workstation with hard-to-source parts can take longer. We tell you the actual timeline upfront, not the optimistic one.
Can I bring my own parts and have you assemble them?
Yes. If you've already bought a CPU, GPU, or computer motherboard elsewhere, we'll build around it for a service fee. We check compatibility before starting. If something in your part list will bottleneck the whole rig, we'll tell you before you commit.
What's the cheapest gaming PC you sell?
Entry-level prebuilt gaming PC pricing starts in the budget tier on the catalogue, and a value-tier custom PC build can come in lower depending on which gaming CPU and GPU you pick. The honest answer: the right price of a computer for you depends on what games you play and at what resolution. Tell us those two things and we'll size the build accordingly.
Do you offer a warranty?
Every PC component carries the manufacturer's warranty, and we help with the claim process so you don't have to chase multiple vendors. For full prebuilts and custom builds, we cover assembly and configuration issues directly. Warranty turnaround depends on the brand. Some are same-week, some take longer.
Can I upgrade an old PC at your store?
Yes. Bring it in or describe what you have and we'll spec the upgrade: a new GPU, more RAM, a faster SSD, a fresh cooler. Most upgrades cost less than buying a new desktop computer, and we'll be honest if your current rig is past the point where upgrades make sense.
Do you offer EMI or payment plans?
Yes. EMI is available on most orders through standard credit-card EMI options. The exact plans depend on your bank, and you'll see what's available at checkout.
