IFSEC India 2026 Guide: Dates, App, Badge Scanning and Follow-Up

IFSEC India dates, hours and venue

Use the IFSEC India dates above to plan your days, and check the IFSEC India Bharat Mandapam floor plan before you arrive.

Who exhibits and who attends IFSEC India?

Security managers and consultants may focus on coverage, access policies and operational requirements, while procurement teams compare scope, budgets and vendor support. Systems integration professionals need to understand interfaces and site constraints. When speaking with suppliers, ask what inputs they need to assess a site, how video surveillance and access control fit existing systems, and what installation or support details to document. Record the site type, relevant requirements, open technical questions and an agreed follow-up.

The venue includes Hall 4GF and Hall 5GF at Bharat Mandapam (Pragati Maidan). Use the event's current floor plan to locate exhibitors and plan movement between halls. Confirm any updated hall assignments before setting meetings.

How to prepare for IFSEC India: tips for exhibitors and visitors

Most of the work happens before you reach New Delhi. Set up Habsy once and every conversation at the show ends with a saved contact, the context you need and a next step.

These IFSEC India exhibitor tips cover how to prepare for IFSEC India 2026, whether or not you also use the official IFSEC India app.

How to set up a lead capture app before IFSEC India

Five steps, in the order the app walks you through them. Visitors need steps 1 to 3. Exhibitors should do all five.

Habsy works as your IFSEC India lead capture app and IFSEC India mobile app in one, and step 1 gives you a IFSEC India digital business card.

1. Create your digital business cards

Every Habsy account includes two free digital cards under MyQR: a Professional digital card for you and a Business digital card for your company, with your services and brochures. Habsy's AI builds them from your LinkedIn profile and website, or from a photo of your own business card. Share them by QR code, NFC or link. The person you share with opens your card in their browser, with no app needed, and saves your contact in one tap. Add an enquiry form so visitors who scan your card leave their details and are saved as a new contact.

1. 

   1Your Professional digital card

2. 

   2Your Business digital card

3. 

   3Share by QR code, NFC or link

2. Add intent signals

Intent signals are a built-in lead qualification form: tap-to-answer questions such as product interest, budget and timeline, answered in a few taps for every contact, so every rep records the same details. In Settings, open Manage Intent Signals, then tap Create with AI to get suggestions from your website, or Create Manually to add the set below.

1. 

   1Open Manage Intent Signals

2. 

   2Review the signals Habsy suggests

3. 

   3Tap the answers after each scan

3. Create a category for IFSEC India

Create a category called IFSEC India and set it as your default for the days of the event, so every contact you scan at the show is filed under it automatically. After the show, use it as a filter to export only your IFSEC India contacts to Excel, CSV or VCF in one step. Exhibitors on Habsy Platform can also use the IFSEC India category to track how the event performed: contacts captured, companies reached, intent signals and each rep's results.

1. 

   1Create the category

2. 

   2Pick it when you save a contact

3. 

   3Find it on every contact

4. Set up your email and WhatsApp templates

Connect your email account or WhatsApp Business account in Settings before the show. Then, with Send email or WhatsApp template turned on in your Card Preferences, your follow-up goes out from your own account the moment you save a scanned contact. The visitor often has your message, and your digital card, before they leave your booth. It shows you are organized and quick to respond, and it puts you ahead of every exhibitor who follows up next week. To write the template, open Email Templates or WhatsApp Templates in Settings, describe the message, and Habsy's AI writes it. Add variables such as the contact's name and company so every message is personal. Here is a template you can copy for IFSEC India:

5. Set your Card Preferences

Choose what Habsy does each time you save a contact, once in Settings or per save. It runs in the background while you move on to the next conversation.

How to scan IFSEC India badges and business cards with your phone

Use one lead capture app on your phone for every contact you make at IFSEC India, wherever you make it: at the booth, in a session, at a reception or over dinner. Every rep and every visitor captures contacts on their own phone, free and with no scan limit, and every contact lands in one list with your category, intent signals and notes.

The same app is your IFSEC India badge scanner, IFSEC India lead scanner and IFSEC India business card scanner, so IFSEC India badge scanning and card scanning end up in one list.

1. 

   1Scan a business card

2. 

   2Scan a badge QR code

3. 

   3Type it in with manual entry

• Badges: point the Habsy scanner at a badge and Habsy reads the attendee's details from its QR code. If a badge holds only a registration number, scan the person's business card or type them in.
• Business cards: scan each card in seconds, or switch to Batch and scan up to 150 cards in about 5 minutes without leaving the camera. Habsy reads cards in 200+ languages.
• QR codes: scan digital business cards from any provider, LinkedIn QR codes and contact QR codes.
• NFC: turn on NFC on the scan screen, then hold an NFC business card or an NFC event badge to the back of your phone. Habsy reads the contact and saves it, with no camera needed.
• Manual entry: no card and no QR code? Choose Manual and type the details in.
• Offline: capture continues when the hall Wi-Fi is busy, and contacts process once you reconnect.

Many shows also sell official lead retrieval through the organizer. Habsy works on its own or next to it. For more, read lead capture vs lead retrieval.

Whichever you choose, compare IFSEC India lead retrieval with scanning on your own phones before you book.

How to qualify IFSEC India leads while you talk

A contact without context is hard to follow up. Before the next conversation starts, add what you discussed and what you promised.

• Intent signals: tap the answers on the review screen after each scan.
• Voice notes: tap Add Voice Note and say what they need. Habsy turns it into a searchable transcript.
• Text notes: type a quick note, such as "Multi-site video and access-control review".
• Reminders: in 1 hour, in 4 hours, tomorrow at 9 AM or any date and time, with a repeat and an alarm. All of them appear in My reminders.

Here is what a contact from IFSEC India looks like with context added:

How to follow up after IFSEC India

The show ends on Saturday, December 5. What you do in the next 48 hours decides how many of those conversations turn into meetings, partners or deals.

If you visited: pick up the conversations you started

• See who looked at your card: open QR analytics to see how many people viewed and saved your digital card, how they engaged and where.
• Save and call back: save vendors to your phone contacts, and set a reminder to call back the ones you want to hear more from.
• Drop a message: Habsy writes a short email or WhatsApp message for any contact, mentioning where you met.
• Export and share: export your IFSEC India category to Excel, CSV or VCF, by date range, with a copy sent to your email, and share the shortlist with your team.

• Monday: filter by intent signals, such as "Book a demo" and "Within 3 months", and send your IFSEC India template to the hottest contacts first.
• Send at scale: select several contacts on the home screen, choose email or WhatsApp and a template, and send to all of them.

IFSEC India lead capture for exhibitor teams

When several reps work the booth, the hard part is not capturing leads. It is knowing, during the show and after it, who met whom, who is hot and who follows up. Habsy Platform is the web dashboard for that, at app.habsy.ai. Reps keep scanning in the app, and the manager sees everything in one place.

app.habsy.ai

• One campaign for IFSEC India: every rep's contacts land in one live list, by rep and by day.
• Clear ownership: assign contacts, set reminders, and get alerts when two reps meet the same person.
• Follow-up from one place: sync to your CRM and run email and WhatsApp follow-up for the whole team.

The IFSEC India post-event report

When the show ends, Habsy turns your IFSEC India contacts into a post-event report: what your team captured, who you met, what they told you through your intent signals, and a dossier on every company with how well it fits your business. Use it to decide who to call first and whether the next edition is worth the booth. Here is what it could look like for IFSEC India, with example data:

Bottom line

Exhibitors can make IFSEC India meetings more useful by capturing each site's security requirements and agreeing on one specific technical follow-up. Visitors: create your digital card and scan every card and badge you collect. Exhibitors: set up intent signals and templates before you fly, capture every contact in one app, and follow up within 48 hours. See event lead capture with Habsy.
