What does it mean for the Indian Semiconductor industry?

From relying on chip design, electronics assembly, and imports, to building semiconductor packaging plants, water fabrication ecosystem, and testing & assembly infrastructure, India is now focusing on creating a robust supplier ecosystem and logistics network. This will also give well-deserved employment opportunities to a pool of skilled labor force. With India positioning itself as an alternative semiconductor manufacturing destination and a trusted supply chain partner for Western and Asian firms, the semiconductor industry in the country is going toward a positive trajectory, also highlighted in a planned execution path given below.
