  • Tata-PSMC is building India's first AI-enabled semiconductor fab, producing up to 50,000 wafers per month for power management, display drivers, microcontrollers, and high-performance computing, serving industries like automotive,

The article from Livemint discusses the significance of India's first domestically produced chip, highlighting its potential impact on the country's technological landscape. India has long been dependent on chip imports, which poses risks in terms of supply chain vulnerabilities and national security. The development of this chip by the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Madras, in collaboration with industry partners, marks a pivotal step towards self-reliance in semiconductor technology. This initiative not only aims to reduce import dependency but also to foster innovation, create jobs, and position India as a player in the global semiconductor market. The chip's production is seen as a strategic move to enhance India's capabilities in electronics manufacturing, bolster digital infrastructure, and support the 'Make in India' campaign, thereby potentially transforming the tech ecosystem in the country.
