India’s semiconductor sector is poised for a quantum leap

DR. Ajai Chowdhry Founder, HCL, Chairman EPIC foundation on Cabinet’s approval of 4 semiconductor projects

“India’s semiconductor sector is poised for a quantum leap with four key major project approvals SiCS, 3DGS, CDIL, and ASIP. It is good to see that we now will have  compound semiconductor fab, which will cater to power sector needs and glass-based OSAT for display needs. Building on its strong chip design foundation, India is now set to turbocharge indigenous manufacturing cutting down on reliance on foreign imports. The projects will significantly cater to the growing demand for semiconductors in sectors like electric vehicles, renewable energy, and industrial applications. This gives great positioning to the country in semiconductor technology and a great decision like this is welcome. “India’s semiconductor sector is poised for a quantum leap with four key major project approvals SiCS, 3DGS, CDIL, and ASIP.

Under the visionary leadership of Honorable Minister Ashwini Vaishnav, India is poised to achieve technological sovereignty, realize the ‘Vikasit Bharat’ vision, and emerge as a key player in the global semiconductor landscape. We eagerly await this transformative journey.”
