Semiconductor Mission

This dashboard brings together the latest insights and real-time data on semiconductor research, manufacturing, and policy — in India and across the world. It tracks global publication trends, government budgets, new technology breakthroughs, and industrial collaborations that define the fast-evolving semiconductor ecosystem.

India is rapidly emerging as a global hub for chip design, fabrication, and talent development under the Semicon India program. At the same time, nations like China, the U.S., Japan, South Korea, and Germany continue to lead research and fabrication efforts, driving global supply chain transformation.

The dashboard highlights how these developments interconnect — combining research data, policy updates, and funding patterns — to show where the semiconductor race is heading and how India is positioning itself at the center of this new technological era.

India semiconductor push: milestones, approved plants and skill plans (2021–2025)

India semiconductor push: milestones, approved plants and skill plans (2021–2025)

Short summary of the major steps India has taken since 2021 to build a semiconductor industry, shown as timeline items, a table of approved plants, and training and AI highlights.

2021
Union Cabinet approved the India Semiconductor Mission (ISM) with a ₹76,000 crore outlay. Aim: boost fabrication, design, and manufacturing.
2023–2025
Rapid setup of major facilities by domestic and foreign firms. Ten projects approved under ISM. Total committed investment about ₹1.60 lakh crore across six states.
2025
India opened its first centres for advanced 3-nanometre chip design in Noida and Bengaluru. Global Investors Summit 2025 announced the first indigenous chip will be production-ready this year. Five production units are under construction.
State & startups
Madhya Pradesh launched its first IT campus with ₹150 crore support. Netrasemi received ₹107 crore VC funding in July 2025 to build chips for smart vision and IoT.
Technology shift
Fabrication is moving toward silicon carbide (SiC). Packaging roadmaps include 3D glass and advanced heterogeneous integration for defence and space use.

Training tomorrow’s experts

  • AICTE launched new curriculum for VLSI design and IC manufacturing.
  • Plan to develop 85,000 skilled people for chip design in 10 years.
  • SMART Lab at NIELIT Calicut training 1 lakh engineers; 44,000+ trained so far.
  • C2S program gave EDA tools to 278 academic institutions and 72 startups; 60,000+ students benefited.
  • 20 chips fabricated by 17 institutions so far, showing active indigenous R&D.

AI compute and infrastructure

Key points:
  • ₹10,300 crore under IndiaAI Mission (2024–2029) for AI compute and datasets.
  • AIKosha hosts 1400+ datasets and 217+ models.
  • AI Compute Portal offers 34,381 GPUs with up to 40% subsidy for startups and labs.
  • Open GPU marketplace and subsidised access (₹100/hour planned).
  • Plans for indigenous GPU development in 3–5 years.
summary: India is building the full semiconductor chain. The plan covers fabs, ATMP, packaging, SiC, advanced packaging, skills and AI compute. This work pushes local manufacturing and research capacity.
