According to a notification issued by the Transport Department in Raipur/ Chhattisgarh, the Raipur Automobile Dealers Association is organizing the Auto Expo-2026 from January 20, 2026, to February 5, 2026, at Shri Ram Business Park, opposite MGM Hospital, Vidhan Sabha Road, Saddu Raipur.
The Transport Department is offering a one-time 50 percent lifetime tax (RTO tax) exemption on vehicles sold at the said Auto Expo, which will provide significant financial benefits to the common citizens of the state.

Auto Expo 2026 is being organised at Shri Ram Business Park, Raipur from 20 January 2026 to 05 February 2026. Customers purchasing vehicles during this period will get the direct benefit of 50 percent discount on RTO tax.

This is the state's first auto expo, which will benefit citizens from across Chhattisgarh. People will not need to travel to Raipur to purchase vehicles; instead, they will be able to avail the benefits of this scheme through participating/registered dealers near their town or village.

Under Auto Expo 2026, all citizens will have the opportunity to register their vehicles in their home districts. This means that the purchased vehicles will receive the registration mark (RTO code) of the transport office of their home district.
Dealers from remote areas are also participating in this Auto Expo, providing significant employment opportunities for small businesses and boosting local trade.

The Raipur Auto Expo will provide the public of Chhattisgarh with the opportunity to view, test, and choose from a wide range of vehicle models and new models equipped with the latest technology, all under one roof. This will also allow the public to become familiar with the latest automobile technologies.

At the Raipur Auto Expo 2026, various financiers and banks are offering vehicle loans at the lowest rates, while insurance companies are providing vehicle insurance at the lowest rates. This will provide additional financial benefits to citizens purchasing vehicles.

Auto Expo-2026 will offer 50% discount on RTO tax and provide vehicles at the lowest rates due to competition among finance companies, banks, insurance companies and various dealers, thereby providing immense financial relief to the common man.

A total of 266 dealers, including 95 dealers from Raipur district and 171 dealers from other districts, are participating in this auto expo in Raipur, which will provide various options to the citizens across the state.

It is noteworthy that a total of 29,348 vehicles were sold in the Auto Expo 2025 last year, through which RTO tax exemption of approximately Rs 120 crore was provided to the general public, due to which the citizens received significant financial assistance.

Thus, Auto Expo-2026 is proving to be an important opportunity for the citizens of the state to purchase vehicles at affordable rates, avail local registration facility and avail huge economic benefits.
