Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw announced Tata Group’s Assam semiconductor plant will produce 48.3 million chips daily, boosting India’s semiconductor industry and creating 27,000 jobs.

On Saturday, Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw announced that Tata Group’s semiconductor plant in Assam will produce 4.83 crore chips daily, a feat made possible by using indigenously developed technologies. Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma and Chairman of Tata Sons Limited N Chandrasekaran performed the Bhumi puja of the Rs 27,000-crore semiconductor assembly and test facility at Jagiroad in Morigaon district on Saturday. The plant, a testament to India’s technological prowess, is expected to be operational in 2025. The chips manufactured at the Tata plant will be used in vehicles, including electric cars, and practically every large company manufacturing 5G, routers, etc., will use these chips for the communication and network infrastructure.

At the factory’s Bhumi Pujan ceremony, Tata Sons Chairman N Chandrasekaran highlighted the chip assembly plant’s significant role in job creation in Assam. The plant is set to create a whopping 27,000 jobs, a boost to the local and national economy, including 15,000 direct and 12,000 indirect employment opportunities.  The minister further said that a significant part of the India Semiconductor Mission is to develop 85,000 talent, and nine institutes in the northeast have started working on developing talent for the semiconductor industry. He said NIT Silchar in Assam, NIT Mizoram, NIT Manipur, NIT Nagaland, NIT Tripura, NIT Agartala, NIT Sikkim, NIT Arunachal Pradesh and two institutes in Meghalaya — North Eastern Hill University and NIT — are involved in talent development for the semiconductor industry.

Ashwini Vaishnaw further emphasised the “Act East” policy, which aims to cultivate extensive economic and strategic relations with the nations of Southeast Asia to bolster its standing as a regional power. Tata Group’s establishment of semiconductor assembly and testing in Assam is a shrewd example of this.
