It features participation from many Indian Automobile manufacturers like Ashok Leyland, Bajaj Auto, Eicher Motors, Force Motors, Hero MotoCorp, India Yamaha Motor (ACI Motors), Mahindra & Mahindra, Maruti Suzuki India, SML Isuzu, Tata Motors, TVS Motor Company, VE Commercial Vehicles along with their Bangladeshi partners. Many component manufacturers and few tyre manufacturers are also participating in the show.

An Indian delegation, including senior industry leaders, will meet the government officials of Bangladesh as part of the four-day event.
Presently there are a number of India-Bangladesh joint ventures in operation in Bangladesh. Uttara Motors is teaming up with Bajaj Auto to set up bike production plant in Bangladesh.

India's automobile industry is likely to contribute 12 per cent to the country's GDP over the coming decade, from 7.1 per cent at present, Union Minister Anant Geete predicts. India exported more than 4 million vehicles in 2017-18. Bangladesh is the fifth largest automotive export market of India and with its growing GDP, disposable income and road infrastructure, has the potential to become a even bigger market.
Mobility helps to a country to develop and a developing country needs even more mobility to cope. Thus, automotive industry is becoming more and more important for Bangladesh. BIDA Chairman Islam said, “We have seen a lot of investments in two-wheelers due to our friendly policy. If we can make good policy, three-wheelers and four-wheelers industry will also develop”. To bring the car manufacturers come and set up plants, Bangladesh needs to first develop the supporting parts and the service industry or else it will be difficult to import all.”
Islam considers that high taxation on car imports was a sensible policy but also thinks we need to make it affordable. He also said, “We have to make it affordable. In the last ECNEC meeting, we have planned to expand all roads to four lanes. There is scope to increase roads infrastructure and manufacturing as well. We have to make the right policy.”
