This scale displays India’s rising significance inside international electronics worth chains and the necessity for a powerful nationwide platform that connects know-how suppliers, producers, consumers, policymakers and traders.
India’s electronics manufacturing push, supported by Production Linked Incentive (PLI) schemes and strengthened by the Electronics Components Manufacturing Scheme (ECMS), is transferring from meeting in the direction of deeper part manufacturing. As of 17 August 2026, MeitY had permitted 106 ECMS tasks representing 69,548 crore in funding and anticipated to generate 74,628 direct jobs, with 38 crops having commenced manufacturing. Against this backdrop, electronica India and productronica India will give producers, part suppliers, electronics manufacturing know-how suppliers, consumers and policymakers a standard platform to evaluate capabilities and construct enterprise partnerships.
Bhupinder Singh, President – IMEA (India, Middle East, Africa), Messe Mnchen, and CEO, Messe Muenchen India, says, “India’s electronics sector has entered a decisive phase, marked by manufacturing expansion, policy support and deeper participation in global value chains. The scale and international reach of electronica India and productronica India 2026 reflect this momentum. In Bengaluru, our focus is to connect industry ambition with the technologies, suppliers and partnerships that can translate it into stronger manufacturing capabilities and measurable business outcomes.”
A two-city nationwide platform expands with the market
electronica India and productronica India beforehand alternated between Delhi-NCR and Bengaluru. From 2026, the exhibitions moved to an annual format in each markets, reflecting 50% progress below the expanded two-city mannequin. This evolution brings the platform nearer to 2 of India’s main electronics manufacturing areas and offers the business extra frequent entry to suppliers, applied sciences and enterprise decision-makers.
The Bengaluru version serves South India’s established ecosystem of electronics manufacturing companies firms, part producers, semiconductor companies, analysis establishments, startups and international know-how enterprises. Its nationwide and worldwide attain permits collaborating firms to match sourcing choices, assess manufacturing applied sciences, and interact instantly with potential enterprise and know-how companions.
Sanjeev Keskar, Member of the National Advisory Committee for electronica India and productronica India 2026, says, “India’s electronics opportunity is significant, but sustaining this growth will require stronger domestic capabilities and faster adoption of advanced manufacturing technologies. The exhibitions give decision-makers a practical opportunity to compare solutions, engage directly with Indian and international suppliers, and identify the technologies and partnerships needed for their next stage of expansion.”
KL Rahul fronts ‘Visit India’s Powerplay in Electronics’ marketing campaign
electronica India and productronica India 2026 have Indian cricketer KL Rahul as Brand Ambassador for the Bengaluru version. As the face of the ‘Visit India’s Powerplay in Electronics’ marketing campaign, Rahul connects the qualities related to high-performance sport preparation, precision and consistency, with the capabilities driving India’s electronics ambitions.
