MCCIA Defence, Aerospace & Space Expo 2026 (MDAS 2026) is a premier national exhibition and conference designed to strengthen India’s defence, aerospace and space manufacturing ecosystem. Organised by the Mahratta Chamber of Commerce, Industries and Agriculture (MCCIA), the three-day event will be held from 3–5 December 2026 at AutoCluster Exhibition Centre, Chinchwad, Pune. Bringing together defence manufacturers, OEMs, DPSUs, Armed Forces, DRDO, technology developers, MSMEs, start-ups, academia and investors, the Expo will create a dynamic platform for showcasing products, technologies, manufacturing capabilities and innovative solutions.

With Pune emerging as a major hub for defence manufacturing, engineering, advanced materials, electronics, precision manufacturing and innovation, MDAS 2026 aims to accelerate collaboration and business opportunities across the defence value chain. The Expo will facilitate direct industry–defence interactions, vendor development, technology transfer, localisation and supply-chain partnerships. Dedicated industry zones covering UAV/UGV technologies, defence start-ups, OEMs and PSUs, advanced technologies, academia and women entrepreneurs will further encourage innovation and indigenous manufacturing. MDAS 2026 is envisioned as a gateway to India’s defence supply chain and a catalyst for strengthening Pune’s position as a leading defence and innovation hub.
