Exhibition Introduction
Medical Fair India is India’s largest and most influential specialized exhibition for the medical and healthcare industries. As a key member of the Global Healthcare Series hosted by Messe Düsseldorf, a world-leading trade fair organizer, the event will, starting in 2026, adopt a dual‑city format—held in New Delhi in January and Mumbai in September—further expanding its reach across the Indian market and providing an essential international platform for business and networking in the healthcare sector.
Market Overview
² India is the world’s most populous country; as of 2025, its population has surpassed 1.46 billion, with the working-age population aged 15–64 accounting for 68%, providing a potential demographic dividend for economic development.
² India has long relied on imports for 75% to 80% of its medical devices, with the United States, Germany, China, Japan, and Singapore being the five largest exporters of high‑tech medical equipment to India.
² India’s healthcare sector’s greatest competitive advantage lies in its low costs. Even compared with Western countries, private hospitals offer exceptionally good value for money, which has fueled the rapid growth of medical tourism and high-end diagnostic services. This thriving “medical tourism economy”—where overseas patients travel to India for both leisure and treatment—has further boosted the business volume of private hospitals and increased demand for imported medical equipment.
² According to the 2024 report by the Association of Indian Medical Device Manufacturers (AIMED), approximately 20% of India’s medical device imports originate from China, with mid- and low-end products accounting for the majority. In rural India, 70% of used ultrasound machines and patient monitors are imported from China, while Chinese-made disposable infusion sets, syringes, and other consumables account for 45% of purchases by private hospitals.
² India’s Ministry of Health, in its 2025 White Paper on Healthcare Infrastructure Development, plans to add 600,000 to 700,000 hospital beds over the next five years, with an investment of US$25–30 billion. Private hospitals will account for 75% of this expansion, and their share of high-end medical equipment far exceeds that of public hospitals, directly boosting demand for imported imaging devices such as CT scanners and MRI machines.
