India’s semiconductor push entered a decisive phase with the Sanand, Gujarat OSAT milestone and Punjab’s Mohali expansion moving the country from chip consumption to contribution. The Sanand facility establishes domestic strength in outsourced assembly and testing, while Mohali’s brownfield upgrade scales high-power discrete devices—critical for EVs, renewables, and industrial electronics. Together, these nodes deepen India’s value chain beyond design into advanced packaging and manufacturing, targeting vulnerabilities exposed by concentrated global foundry capacity. Policymakers aim to pair infrastructure with talent, bringing diaspora engineers into new R&D and design clusters across the north, including Chandigarh–Mohali–Ropar. With India’s semiconductor program emphasizing resilient supply chains and local capability, Punjab’s role complements western corridor investments, accelerating diversification and job creation. Anchored by Sanand’s OSAT and Mohali’s expansion, the roadmap signals an India-ready ecosystem for chips that power cars, telecom, defense, and clean energy—turning vision into capacity on the ground. #chipmanufacturing #semiconductor #microchips #ChipMaking #semiconductorindustry #chipdesign #ChipManufacturers #semiconductortechnology #ChipProduction #ChipFabrication #SemiconductorEngineering #techinnovation
