JCB India has launched 10 machines at bauma CONEXPO INDIA 2026 and outlined plans for export growth and higher production as the company expands its India operations.
JCB India has launched 10 new machines at bauma CONEXPO INDIA 2026 in Greater Noida, using the exhibition to expand its equipment offering across construction, earthmoving and related applications.
The company is exhibiting at Stall OD40 at the India Expo Centre & Mart during the September 15–18 event. JCB’s official exhibition page lists equipment spanning backhoe loaders, excavators, compactors, telehandlers, wheel loaders, access platforms and power equipment.
The 2026 exhibition comes as JCB broadens the range of machines available for India’s construction and infrastructure market.
JCB’s published show display includes the 3DX, 3DX Plus and 3DX Super backhoe loaders, alongside the 35Z and 18Z mini excavators. The company describes the 18Z as a newly launched mini excavator with an operating weight of approximately 1.8 tonnes and zero-tail-swing design.
The larger equipment display includes excavators such as the 150FM, 215FM, 225 QM, 345HD and 520X, covering infrastructure, quarrying and mining applications. JCB lists the 225 QM as a quarrying machine and the 520X for mining applications.
JCB is also displaying road and material-handling equipment at the event.
The company’s official exhibition listing includes the VM117 soil compactor and VMT300 mini tandem roller, along with the 530-110 and 540-180 telehandlers. The 540-180 is listed with a maximum lift height of 17.51 metres and a 4,000 kg lift capacity.
The display further includes the 475-5 wheel loader, listed by JCB with a 7,627 kg payload, as well as the SSL 135 skid steer loader.
Electrification is also represented at the JCB stand.
The company is showing the S4550E electric scissor lift and A60E all-electric articulated boom lift. JCB describes the A60E as an all-electric machine designed for zero-emission operation.
The display also includes the G160QI 160 kVA CPCB IV+ diesel genset, extending the company’s exhibition portfolio into power equipment.
Alongside its new-machine launches, JCB India is also outlining its manufacturing and export plans.
According to reports published around the opening of bauma CONEXPO INDIA 2026, the company is targeting 15–20% growth in exports and plans to produce approximately 70,000 units in FY27.
The targets come as JCB continues to use its Indian manufacturing operations to supply both the domestic market and international markets. JCB says its Indian operations manufacture equipment for domestic customers as well as exports, with manufacturing facilities supporting several product categories.
JCB has operated in India since 1979 and has expanded its manufacturing footprint over the decades. The company’s Indian operations include facilities supporting backhoe loaders, excavators, wheel loaders, compaction equipment and other products.
The company’s current bauma display therefore combines the launch of new machines with a broader product portfolio covering excavation, road construction, material handling, access equipment and power applications.
With the 10-machine launch and the production and export targets reported for FY27, JCB’s presence at bauma CONEXPO INDIA 2026 provides a view of how the company is positioning its Indian manufacturing operations for both domestic equipment demand and overseas markets.
