Auto Serve 2012 will witness its 5th edition and is held between 16th - 18th November 2012, at Chennai Trade Centre. Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India. CII through Auto Serve forum has been playing a vital role in developing and providing a ready to use marketing and educational platform for the growing automotive aftermarket business in India.

Auto Serve 2012 expects more than 125 companies involved in Automotive Services, Component & spare parts, Aftermarket products, Garage & Service Equipments, Garage Tools who will exhibit to 10,000+ Trade & Business visitors.

In Auto Serve series, we have seen increase in numbers of exhibitors from the commercial vehicle segment. As a known fact, running a vehicle fleet is a far more complex business than simply sourcing and purchasing vehicles, whether light or heavy. And also heavy wear & tear of components, spare parts, replacement of tyres & batteries, lubricant & fuel consumption gives a clear indication that there is a need of organizing at Auto Serve.

Auto Serve 2012 has received tremendous support from the leading National, Regional, State and City Level Associations in India & the event will attract service heads of automotive companies, private & corporate fleet operators, state transport maintenance departments, managers of service stations, workshop & garage owners / garage operators, mechanics, automotive vehicle dealers, dealers of automotive products and consumers as visitors.

The petrochemical industry in India has been one of the fastest growing industries in the country. Since the beginning, the Indian petrochemical industry has shown an enviable growth rate. This industry also contributes largely to the economy of the country and the growth and development of manufacturing industry as well. It provides the foundation for manufacturing industries like construction, packaging, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, textiles etc. This industry, not only in India but also across the world, is dominated by volatile feedstock prices and sulky demand. India has one of the lowest per capita consumptions of petrochemical products in the world. For example, the per capita consumption of polyester in India lies at 1.4 kg only comparing to 6.6 kg for China and 3.3 kg for the whole world. Similarly, the per capita consumption of polymers is 4 kg in India, whereas the per capita consumption is around 20 kg for the whole world.
