The government announced today that next year's Bharat Mobility Global Expo will be held between January 17-22, 2025 at three venues in Delhi NCR. This will be the second edition of the annual Expo, which combines the Auto Expo and Components Show, organised by the Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM) and Automotive Component Manufacturers Association (ACMA) under one umbrella.

  1. Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025 to be held from January 17-22
  2. Will be the second edition of the automobile show
  3. Replaces Auto Expo as India’s biggest automotive show

We'd reported earlier that the government and the industry are considering hosting the second edition of the show next year between January 17 and 22 at three different venues in Delhi NCR: Bharat Mandapam (Pragati Maidan), Yashobhoomi (India International Convention and Expo Centre, Dwarka) and India Expo Mart (Greater Noida), simultaneously.

The Bharat Mobility Global Expo was incorporated to provide one exhibition platform for India’s entire mobility ecosystem, which was held from February 1-3 this year. Until last year, vehicle and component expos were held as two separate events, organised by SIAM and ACMA respectively, once every two years.

After the success of the first edition of Bharat Mobility show, Piyush Goyal, minister of Commerce & Industry had announced that all of India’s automotive shows will be merged into the Bharat Mobility Global Expo, which will become an annual event.

“Bharat Mobility will now act as an umbrella brand under which individual shows of various industry associations would be undertaken. While overall branding will be Bharat Mobility for the entire mobility value chain, each part of that value chain will retain its branding during the period at three locations,” said Vipul Bansal, joint secretary with the Department of Commerce.

For now, there is no confirmation regarding the exact venue where the vehicle and component show will be held next year, and each industry association has been given the flexibility to decide on the duration of their respective exhibitions between January 17-22.
