The project, involving an investment of around ₹91,000 crore, marks a major step in India’s push to build a domestic semiconductor ecosystem and reduce dependence on imports. The facility will focus on electronic hardware, software, and IT-enabled services, and is expected to generate nearly 21,000 jobs, boosting industrial growth in the Dholera Special Investment Region.
The notification follows recent policy reforms aimed at attracting capital-intensive chip manufacturing projects, including easing land requirements for SEZs in the semiconductor sector. This development is seen as a key milestone under India’s broader strategy to emerge as a global semiconductor manufacturing hub and strengthen initiatives like self-reliance in electronics production.
