Our CEO has been using working on and Linux since 1994. Being among the first Indian team promoting Linux since 1994, the first 3 Indian LUG (Linux Users Group) web-sites were (humbly & luckily) sponsored-hosted by him, for Delhi, Cochin & Calcutta LUGs in India. Our technical team is headed by the Technical Director with 19 years of Linux experience, thus ensuring the best services for the clients.

We are proud to be the only OEM in India offering a homegrown Linux Desktop solution, purpose-built for bulk deployment, backed by dedicated support (based on professional SLA with Risk Mitigation & Commercial Safeguards) for bulk-users' organizations.

Our Mission

We believe technology should serve people, not burden them with costs, complexity, or security risks. OpenLx exists to make world-class, secure computing accessible to every Indian institution — from Classrooms to Corporations to Governments — while strengthening India's technological self-reliance.

Our Vision for India

We see OpenLx as more than software. It is a foundation for:

  • A stronger local economy, built on Indian IT jobs and Indian innovation

  • A more secure digital India, that is not vulnerable to the Windows-targeted malware that accounts for the overwhelming majority of desktop infections, and not requiring to spend heavily on anti-virus license cost.

  • A more equitable education system, where cost is never a barrier to modern computing

  • A truly self-reliant IT ecosystem, aligned with India's open-source and Digital India policies

Our Commitment

Every OpenLx deployment comes with our commitment to friendly, accessible technology and responsive support — because a secure, affordable operating system should also be a pleasure to use.
