The expo is expected to showcase approximately 700 exhibitors and will receive around 30,000 plus business visitors, according to the organisers.

Positive trends
According to VDMA - German Engineering Federation, India is currently the only Asian country able to point to a growing construction machinery market. Infrastructure development is commonly held to be the driving force behind this development. With a view to current conditions and all currently foreseeable factors, the British market research company Off-Highway Research arrives at a very favourable forecast for the next five years as well. It envisages the approximately 55,000 construction machines the analysts expect to be sold in India in 2016 climbing steadily to more than 71,000 units by 2020. The top sellers, with a combined market share of over 90 per cent in 2020, are expected to be backhoe loaders, crawler excavators, mobile cranes, mobile compressors, compactors and wheel loaders. All these positive outlooks have resulted in positive responses from exhibitors.
