LUCKNOW: India’s automotive aftermarket is entering a transformative era, propelled by aggressive policy reforms, a surge in investments, and the rapid integration of advanced technologies. According to the Automotive Component Manufacturers Association of India (ACMA), the Indian auto component industry has reached a valuation of $80.2 billion in FY25, with the aftermarket segment alone contributing $11.8 billion.
Industry projections suggest the sector is on track to reach a staggering $111–$200 billion by 2030, positioning India as a resilient and competitive hub in the global value chain.
Yashobhoomi to Host India’s Largest Aftermarket Expo
Against this backdrop of exponential growth, ACMA Automechanika New Delhi 2026 is set to take place from February 5 to 7, 2026, at Yashobhoomi (India International Convention & Expo Centre), Dwarka, Delhi.
Organized by Messe Frankfurt Trade Fairs India and ACMA, the 6th edition of this premier trade fair will feature:
- 870+ Exhibitors from over 20 countries.
- 3,000+ Brands showcasing the latest in OE manufacturing and aftermarket solutions.

Driving the ‘Make in India’ Momentum
The industry’s momentum is heavily supported by government initiatives such as the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) Scheme, FDI reforms, and the Make in India campaign. These policies have successfully attracted robust investor interest, focusing on capacity expansion, electric mobility (EV), and export-oriented manufacturing.
“As India prioritizes quality-based development, ACMA Automechanika 2026 will demonstrate how our industry is aligning with global trends,” said Mr. Raj Manek, Executive Director and Board Member, Messe Frankfurt Asia Holdings Ltd. “The show will unite global participants around sustainable solutions, clean-fuel ecosystems, and technological innovations aimed at a greener future.”
