India Targets Manufacture Of 3-Nanometre Chips
Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw announced on 27 January that India aims to manufacture advanced 3-nanometre semiconductor chips by 2032 under the second phase of the Design-Linked Incentive Scheme. The plan focuses on six chip categories—compute, radio frequency, networking, power, sensor and memory—and targets 70–75% domestic control of technology products by 2029, with four plants expected online in 2026. The initiative seeks to build a full domestic semiconductor ecosystem and reduce import dependence.
