The show is expected to become the largest construction machinery trade fair in India in terms of participating exhibitors and will also be the country's most international construction event with 70% of registered exhibitors headquartered outside of India.

After India, the top five countries of origin for the exhibitors are Germany, Italy, the US, China and Great Britain respectively.

The Indian Minister of Urban Development, Kamal Nath, will be delivering the opening speech at the show to emphasise the strategic importance of bC India for the Indian construction industry.
