Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to address India’s first-of-its-kind mobility show, which aims to showcase the country’s growing role as a global hub for mobility.
The event, Bharat Mobility Global Expo, will be organised during February 1-3 in the national capital. It will bring the entire mobility value chain under one roof, including over 800 exhibitors and around 50 overseas players.
India is one of the largest markets for vehicle manufacturers, and is growing steadily as a global export hub.
While the share of vehicles being exported is 14 cent right now, India aims to increase it to about 25 per cent of all passenger vehicles produced in the country by 2030.
India is also playing a crucial role in the future of the automotive industry, including innovating automotive software, next gen electronics and industrial automation.
Besides domestic stakeholders, the expo will be attended by international participants across 47 countries.
