World of Concrete India 2025 by Informa Markets to be held from 8th–10th Oct in Mumbai
This year’s edition will spotlight the theme “Comprehensive Concrete Review: A Complete Supply Chain”, with conferences, masterclasses, conclaves, and innovation showcases. Global participation will be led by the German Pavilion alongside exhibitors from Korea, China, the USA, and Spain. 1Lattice joins as the Knowledge Partner, while GRIHA supports the initiative, reinforcing focus on sustainability and innovation.
Yogesh Mudras, Managing Director, Informa Markets in India said, "India’s construction and cement sectors are at a pivotal juncture, poised for accelerated growth driven by sustained infrastructure investments and government initiatives like the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana. The construction industry, currently valued at over USD 1.2 trillion, is projected to more than double by 2030, reaching USD 2.13 trillion. This upward trajectory is reflected in the 8% rise in cement production in early 2025 and an anticipated 7-8% increase in demand in FY26, particularly from the real estate sector. As the industry embraces sustainability in line with India’s net-zero goals, the shift toward greener technologies and alternative materials is no longer optional, it’s essential. The World of Concrete India continues to play a crucial role in this transformation by serving as a platform that drives innovation, encourages dialogue and connects key stakeholders working to build a resilient and future-ready ecosystem.”

In May 2025, cement volumes surged by 9% year-on-year, reaching 39.6 million metric tonnes, aadditionally, cement production is anticipated to reach 480-485 million metric tonnes in FY26, up from 453 million metric tonnes in FY25, reflecting the sector's resilience and growth potential. Large-scale programmes such as the National Infrastructure Pipeline, Mumbai-Ahmedabad High-Speed Rail and the Chennai-Bengaluru Expressway are reinforcing India’s status as one of the world’s fastest-growing construction markets. Complementing this momentum, the government is preparing a ₹5,000 crore national mission to incentivise sustainable steel production, leveraging concessional loans, risk guarantees, and advanced technologies to drive decarbonisation in the sector.
As World of Concrete India 2025 approaches, the anticipation among industry professionals continues to build. This landmark event not only marks a decade of innovation and progress in the construction sector but also serves as a vital hub for collaboration and knowledge-sharing.
