Pune, 1 August 2024

As per industry estimates, the size of the Indian semiconductor market was about $ 38 Bn in 2023 and is expected to reach $ 109 Bn by 2030. The Government has taken various steps to encourage domestic manufacturing of semiconductors in the country as follows:
The government has approved the Semicon India programme with a total outlay of Rs 76,000 crore for the development of the semiconductor and display manufacturing ecosystem in the country. The programme aims to provide financial support to companies investing in semiconductors, display manufacturing and design ecosystems.

Followings four schemes have been introduced under the aforesaid programme:

i. ‘Modified Scheme for setting up of Semiconductor Fabs in India’ extends fiscal support of 50% of the project cost on a pari-passu basis for setting up of Silicon CMOS-based Semiconductor Fabs in India.

ii. ‘Modified Scheme for setting up of Display Fabs in India’ extends fiscal support of 50% of Project Cost on a pari-passu basis for setting up of Display Fabs in India.

iii. ‘Modified Scheme for setting up of Compound Semiconductors / Silicon Photonics / Sensors Fab / Discrete Semiconductors Fab and Semiconductor Assembly, Testing, Marking and Packaging (ATMP) / OSAT facilities in India’ extends fiscal support of 50% of the Capital Expenditure on pari-passu basis for setting up of Compound Semiconductors / Silicon Photonics (SiPh) / Sensors (including MEMS) Fab/ Discrete Semiconductor Fab and Semiconductor ATMP / OSAT facilities in India.

iv. ‘Design Linked Incentive (DLI) Scheme’: In addition to the design infrastructure support, the scheme provides “Product Design Linked Incentive” of up to 50% of the eligible expenditure subject to a ceiling of ₹15 Crore per application and “Deployment Linked Incentive” of 6% to 4% of net sales turnover over 5 years subject to a ceiling of ₹30 Crore per application.

The Government has also approved modernisation of the Semi-Conductor Laboratory, Mohali as a brownfield Fab. Further, the Government has been implementing the following programs focused on the development of electronics manufacturing and components ecosystem:

The Scheme for Promotion of Manufacturing of Electronic Components and Semiconductors (SPECS) was notified on 004.2020 and was open to receive applications up to 31.03.2024. The scheme provides a financial incentive of 25% on capital expenditure for electronic components, e-waste recycling, mechanics, micro/nano-electronic components, solar photovoltaic (SPV) polysilicon, SPV wafers and solar cells, specialized sub-assemblies and capital goods for manufacture of aforesaid goods. As of, 30.06.2024, incremental investment of Rs. 8,803.14 crores had been made under the SPECS scheme. This has led to the production of Rs 18,083.55 crores till 30 June 2024.

Production Linked Incentive (PLI) Scheme for Large Scale Electronics: To boost domestic manufacturing and attract investment in the mobile phones value chain including electronic components and semiconductor packaging, Production Linked Incentive Scheme (PLI) for Large Scale Electronics Manufacturing was notified on 01.04.2020. The scheme extends an incentive of 3% to 6% on incremental sales of goods manufactured in India and covered under target segments viz. Mobile Phones and Specified Electronic Components, to eligible companies, for 5 years. Till 30 June 2024, incremental investment of Rs 8,390 Crores had been made under the PLI scheme. This has led to production of Rs 5,14,960 Crores till 30 Jun 2024.

To develop a roadmap for “India as a Semiconductor Talent Nation”, a committee was constituted in August 2022 with the representatives from semiconductor industry, academia and Government.

All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) has launched the following model curriculum for UG, Diploma, Minor Degree in Semiconductor domain on 18.02.2023 as a step towards the creation of Talent pool in Semiconductor domain:

1.B. Tech in Electronics Engineering (VLSI Design and Technology)

2.Diploma in IC manufacturing

3.Minor Degree in Electronics Engineering (VLSI Design and Technology)

Under the Chips to Startup (C2S) Programme being implemented at 113 academic institutions/ R&D organizations/ Startups/ MSMEs, 85,000 high-quality and qualified engineers are being trained in several areas. These include Very-large-scale integration (VLSI) and Embedded System Design as well as the development of 175 ASICs (Application Specific Integrated Circuits), working prototypes of 20 System on Chips (SoC), 30 FPGA-based designs and 30 IP Cores over 5 years.
This information was given by the Minister of State for Electronic & Information Technology, Jitin Prasada in a written reply to a question in Lok Sabha.
