  Semiconductor The demand for semiconductors, the backbone of everything from mobile phones to cars, industrial automation to defence equipment, is surging in India. By 2030, India’s chip demand is expected to touch $117 billion, growing at ~15% CAGR, at almost twice the global pace, and constituting about 12% of global demand. In a world where ~75% of manufacturing capacity is in China, Taiwan, South Korea and Japan, India remains significantly dependent on chip imports. India has shown how a concerted policy push can change the map. Make-in-India and the PLI schemes have resulted in over 99% of smartphones being sold in India today being made in India as well, an impressive jump from just 26% in 2014-15. Over the last few years, India has been looking to replicate this success in semiconductors, reduce its dependence on chip imports and create a resilient supply chain for semiconductors in India. The India Semiconductor Mission has done well to attract strong participation from ...
