From Iron to Intelligence

India’s construction ecosystem is standing at the edge of a historic
shift—one that is rapidly transforming the very identity of machines that
build the nation. The era of pure mechanical might is giving way to a
world where intelligence is the true horsepower. Sensors, telematics,
automation, predictive diagnostics, alternative fuels, and AI-infused
control systems are rewriting the role of equipment across highways,
metros, mining, and urban infrastructure. And this inflection point will
come into clear focus at EXCON 2025 — a global meeting ground for
next-generation equipment. This year’s edition will serve as a pivotal
launchpad, bringing together India-ready and internationally engineered
digital innovations that collectively reflect the industry’s shift from Iron to
Intelligence…….. writes, PRERNA SHARMA.
