India Mobile Congress (IMC) 2026 takes place at Yashobhoomi (India International Convention & Expo Centre) in New Delhi from 7 October to 10 October 2026. Asia's largest telecom, media and technology forum, 10th edition organised by DoT and COAI featuring AI, 6G and digital platforms.

What the fair covers

Communications infrastructure, networking and information technology lead the programme. Asia's largest telecom, media and technology forum, 10th edition organised by DoT and COAI featuring AI, 6G and digital platforms. That shapes both the exhibitor mix and the questions worth preparing before you arrive.

Dates, venue and getting there

The fair runs from 7 October to 10 October 2026 at Yashobhoomi (India International Convention & Expo Centre) in New Delhi. It runs for 4 days, which is usually enough to cover several product areas without rushing. New Delhi hosts many of India's largest trade fairs. Traffic is heavy and journey times vary widely by time of day, so allow generous margins when scheduling meetings. The metro is often the more predictable option for reaching exhibition grounds.

Planning your visit

Electronics fairs reward buyers who arrive with a specification. The density of specialist manufacturers in one venue is the main draw, and the useful days are spent comparing how different suppliers answer the same technical brief rather than browsing for ideas. For India Mobile Congress (IMC) 2026, that means preparing ahead of the October dates and arriving with a target list of stands.

Language and interpreting support

English is used routinely in Indian business and most exhibitors will handle commercial discussions in it comfortably. Where language support helps is less about translation and more about local knowledge: understanding regional supplier bases, verifying company credentials and navigating logistics is where an experienced local contact adds most. An interpreter already working in New Delhi saves further time simply by knowing the venue and how to move around it.

After the fair

Qualifying an electronics supplier takes longer than agreeing a price. Sample testing, consistency across production batches, and compliance documentation all need verifying, because a component that performs correctly in a sample does not always perform identically at volume. Functionality testing on early orders is common.
