The third edition of the ‘Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2027’ is set to become the world’s second-largest mobility exhibition. It will feature over 1,750 exhibitors and 11 concurrent shows, with an expected footfall of more than 1 million visitors. Spanning an exhibition area of over 2.5 lakh square meters, this six-day event will be held from February 4 to 9, 2027, at ‘Bharat Mandapam’ in New Delhi and ‘Yashobhoomi’ in Dwarka.
Addressing the curtain-raiser event in New Delhi on November 10, Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal called upon the Indian mobility industry to expand beyond, tap global opportunities, boost exports and position country as a global manufacturing hub through international partnership.
Goyal Urges Industry to Boost Exports and Expand Global Manufacturing
Goyal said combining domestic demand with global markets would help Indian manufacturers achieve economies of scale and competitive pricing. He also highlighted growing interest from Japanese and European companies in partnering with Indian manufacturers to serve global markets.
Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal reiterated the government’s $1 trillion export target for the current financial year, stating that India had achieved around $480 billion in exports in the first six months, or 48 per cent of the annual target. He also highlighted 22 per cent growth in engineering exports. He urged the industry to take advantage of government initiatives, including the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) schemes for automobiles, auto components and specialty steel, along with the Export Promotion Mission.
Goyal said the EU was expected to offer zero-duty market access to Indian businesses by March-April, while negotiations with seven to eight other countries could further expand exports opportunities.
Goyal Sets Target of 25,000 International Visitors
Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal urged the organizers to attract at least 25,000 international visitors from the expected footfall of over 10 lakh. He called for wider industry participation, including global suppliers, tire dealers, component manufacturers and after-sales services bisinesses.
This event will also provide MSMEs, startups, international technology companies, research institutions, and government agencies with an opportunity to showcase their capabilities and explore partnerships. Goyal said India should aim for annual passenger vehicle sales of 10 million units, while two-wheeler sales already stand at around 25 million units, excluding exports.
