Driving India’s Mobility Transformation at CII Mystic South 2025 We believe that the future of mobility is not just about moving people and goods - it’s about smart and sustainable growth. At the recently held CII Mystic South Global Linkages Summit 2025, industry leaders, policymakers and visionaries came together to explore how South India can power ahead toward a $10 trillion economy by 2047. Our MD & CEO, Satyakam Arya, chaired two key Mobility Pillar panel discussions at CII Mystic South 2025, addressing India’s potential as a global EV leader and the path to clean mobility. The first session, "Untangling the Traffic Knot – India’s Mobility Future," explored rural connectivity, smart mobility, electric logistics and policy-driven reforms. The second, "From Tailpipe Emissions to Tailwind Progress: The EV Revolution," focused on decarbonization, EV adoption, charging infrastructure, sustainable supply chains and battery innovations. Both discussions reinforced the need for collaboration across industries and policymakers to drive India's mobility transformation. At DICV, we remain committed to pioneering sustainable mobility solutions and shaping the future of transportation in India. #DICV #MobilityTransformation #SustainableTransport #EVRevolution #FutureOfMobility #CII #MysticSouth2025 #India2047 #Innovation #LogisticsTransformation
