Picture this: you walk into a massive exhibition hall in Chennai, expecting to see shiny leather goods, gourmet food stalls, and jazzy decor… and who’s behind all that glamour? Not some invisible magical elves, but Exhicon Events Media Solutions Ltd (BSE: 543895) – the company that’s just bagged a tender from the big daddy of Indian exhibitions, the India Trade Promotion Organisation (ITPO).
On August 20, 2025, Exhicon officially announced that it has been awarded management of some of the country’s most premier trade fairs, including AAHAR 2025 (the foodie paradise), and the India International Leather Fair 2026 & 2027 (where even your shoes will feel underdressed). Basically, if it’s happening in Chennai, Exhicon is the one laying the carpets, erecting the stalls, and making sure the trash bins don’t look like modern art installations.

- Stall Construction & Customisation: Using Octonorm modular systems (fancy IKEA for exhibitions), they’ll build stalls faster than you can assemble a bookshelf without losing screws.
- Carpeting & Flooring: Because barefoot on cold cement is not a vibe, they’ll roll out carpets and flooring that meet “international standards” –
