Indian shipbuilding industry and shipyards, as well as the Indian Navy and coastguard. These exceptional facts and figures together with
the high-calibre supporting programme have firmly established SMM India in the global shipbuilding industry calendar.
Steeped in a strong shipbuilding tradition, India has become a rapidly growing international force in the maritime industry – making it the ideal

Indian maritime industry – enjoying the sea change
The Indian shipbuilding industry is on a high growth trajectory and is expected to grow considerably in
the next few years. Due to a geographical shift in shipbuilding activities, the sector has become very
attractive for India. Indeed, together with shipping and infrastructure, the Indian government has made
shipbuilding a strategic industry with large state-supported investment programmes for development. This
has opened up huge opportunities for Indian shipyards and both – public and private shipbuilders
are taking advantage of them.
Indian shipbuilding is now emerging as an international competitive, export-led industry.
Additionally it has
already gained a strong foothold in the niche offshore segment. India also leverages the strengths of its IT
industry as it sets up new modern shipyards.
SMM India 2011 takes place at the Bombay Exhibition Centre (BEC). It is ideally situated along the Western
Express Highway in Goregaon, within 10 minutes from the
international airport. You will find several excellent hotels, entertainment
activities, retail and sightseeing opportunities located nearby.
