FORGING INDIA’S MANUFACTURING MOMENTUM

At a time when India’s economic ascent is being validated by both capital flows and global attention, India’s manufacturing sector finds itself at a defining point. The country has attracted US$ 51 billion in FDI over the past six months, which is a resounding endorsement of India’s structural reforms, policy consistency, and innovation-led growth.

In this context, IMTEX FORMING 2026 & Tooltech 2026, organized by Indian Machine Tool Manufacturers’ Association, serves as a mirror and catalyst, showcasing progress while accelerating partnerships and technological adoption. Recognized as Asia’s biggest platform for metal forming technologies, the trade show brings together precision engineering, advanced manufacturing, and global enterprise under one roof at Bangalore International Exhibition Centre from January 21-25, 2026.

With international buyers, sourcing leaders, and global investors visiting the show, IMTEX FORMING 2026 & Tooltech 2026 reflects India’s manufacturing ecosystem that is advancing toward technological maturity, global competitiveness, and long-term resilience. The convergence of advanced forming technologies, automation, digital integration, and precision engineering gives a glimpse of how the industry is aligning with the imperatives of the future.

As the exhibition halls host discussions, live demonstrations, and technology and product showcases, new connections are formed, collaborations take shape, and businesses identify opportunities to enhance productivity, sustainability, and competitiveness in the years ahead.
