R. Mukundan, President Designate, CII and Chairman, EXCON 2025, said, “As an industry-driven platform, EXCON reflects our collective commitment to building a stronger India. The construction equipment sector plays a pivotal role in the nation’s economic growth, as infrastructure development and economic expansion go hand in hand. This edition of EXCON showcased several forward-looking innovations, particularly in the areas of sustainability and green energy, underscoring the industry’s readiness for the future. Industry reports also indicate significant headroom for growth, with the construction equipment sector well-positioned to catch up with other manufacturing industries in the coming years.”
EXCON 2025 emphasized “Building India’s Tomorrow” through zones on AI, IoT, automation, electric/hybrid equipment, and green technologies for low-emission projects. Conferences covered skill development, safety, decarbonization, and alignment with Bharatmala, high-speed rail, and Smart Cities under PM Gati Shakti.

“EXCON truly represents the ‘festival of construction equipment,’ and it is heartening to once again see records being broken through collective industry effort.
