India is expanding continues to expand its semiconductor ecosystem through significant government approvals and industry engagement. The central government has approved 12 projects across six states, with investment commitments exceeding Rs 1.64 lakh crore. This includes the Semicon 2.0 initiative, which allocates Rs 1,27,500 crore toward chip design, fabrication, and advanced packaging. Specific developments include the approval of a Rs 3,406.25 crore silicon carbide manufacturing facility by SiCSem Private Limited in Odisha’s Khordha district, intended to produce diodes and MOSFETs for the electric vehicle and renewable energy sectors. On September 17, 2026, Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated district. During the fifth edition of SEMICON India 2026 at Yashobhoomi summit in New Delhi. The three-day event, organized by the India Semiconductor Mission (ISM), the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY), Delhi, Prime Minister Narendra Modi noted that commercial production has already commenced in Mohali and SEMI, is themed ‘Silicon Surat. He emphasized the transition from foundational infrastructure to Systems: Building “large-scale industrial opportunity,” highlighting the Ecosystem’. need for collaboration in skilling, AI, and quantum computing. The conference features over 600 exhibitors, including approximately 300 international companies, Semicon 2.0 strategic phase is focused on six pillars: design, machinery and expects around 50,000 visitors. During the summit, major materials, fab establishment, ATMP/OSAT strengthening, R&D, and talent development. To support workforce training, Infineon and NIELIT have launched a semiconductor manufacturing Centre of Excellence in Ahmedabad. Major industry players announced significant expansions. have also committed to the region. Lam Research Corp. reaffirmed plans to invest approximately INR 10,000 crores to establish its first silicon component manufacturing facility in India and expand its R&D operations. Additionally, India, while Fujifilm India announced plans to construct for a new factory in Dholera, Gujarat, Gujarat.
