‘Chip making $85-$100 bn opportunity for India’
Live MintThe IESA in its Global Semiconductor Manufacturing Supply Chain Report said India could account for $85-$100 billion out of a $550-$600 billion annual global market opportunity by 2030. In a second report, titled India Semiconductor Market Report 2019-2026, it forecast that the Indian semiconductor market could grow to $64.05 billion by 2026, and the market was valued at $27.15 billion in 2021. According to the IESA’s chairman Rajeev Khushu, semiconductor manufacturing in India will include both assembly, test, marking, and packaging plants and fabs. The India Semiconductor Market report segmented the global chip market into three parts—manufacturing of semiconductor equipment used in fabs, foundries, and TMPs, materials such as chemicals, minerals, and gases used in manufacturing, and services across the chip making value chain.
