The 2025 edition will host 175+ exhibitors and 500+ brands from India and abroad, with 35% first-time participants. Spread across 14,780 sqm, dedicated zones include:
- The Denim Show in association with the Denim Manufacturers Association (DMA)

- LeatherX Pavilion
- Textile Care Forum in association with the Drycleaners and Launderers Association of India (DLAI)
The Textile Care Forum, debuting on 22 August 2025, will focus on laundry and dry-cleaning automation, sustainable practices, EPR compliance, and green chemistry. The LeatherX Pavilion will open opportunities for collaboration in leather processing, tanning, fashion accessories, and footwear.
