At this point, the capacity is 200 million chips annually, with a target to hit 5 billion chips or 15 million chips a day. \u201cThis CG Semi plant is also a symbol of the joint efforts of our industry partners from India, Japan, and Thailand. It is not just a business venture, but a model of technology, trust, and partnership that will accelerate India\u2019s semiconductor journey,\u201d added PM Modi. To him, it was further proof that \u201cthe Semicon India Program is gaining momentum \u2013 step by step, brick by brick, and now chip by chip.\u201d<\/p> <p><strong>MUST READ |\u00a0Free cash flow most relevant measure: Vellayan Subbiah on Murugappa Group&#8217;s foray into new technology sectors<\/strong><\/p> <p>According to Vellayan Subbiah, Executive Vice Chairman, CG Power, India\u2019s semiconductor journey has moved from ground-breaking to shipping. \u201cThe milestone marks the start of a much larger build-out. We have started shipping from Sanand and got our chips qualified with a couple of our customers now,\u201d he said. \u00a0<\/p> <p>Earlier this year, Subbiah was the recipient of the Business Icon of the Year award as a part of Business Today\u2019s India\u2019s Best CEOs awards. In a detailed interview with BT then, he outlined the big opportunity in semiconductors.<\/p> <p><strong>DON&#8217;T MISS |\u00a0PM Modi reveals he had a semiconductor plan 20 years ago. Why it never took off<\/strong><\/p> <p>\u201cIts value chain has three parts to it. One is the design and chips themselves, followed by the fabs that make the wafers. The third part is the OSAT (outsourced semiconductor assembly and testing). I think all three are required. This is also a way to get into capital equipment and India must be able to make that,\u201d he had said. Subbiah pointed out that many things need to come together to create the whole ecosystem. \u201cNow, we are speaking of the supply side, but one must start thinking of demand as well. The way I see it, this is becoming a national priority. We need ten more companies to join in this effort. We don\u2019t speak very often of wanting competition, but the situation today is really about that. It is necessary to get the momentum going for the country.\u201d<br \/>\u00a0<\/p> <\/div> <p>#Semi #plant #proof #Semicon #India #Program #gaining #momentum #Modi1783316863<\/p> ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The commercial production at CG Semi Private Limited, a joint venture between Murugappa Group\u2019s CG Power &amp; Industrial Solutions, Reneas Electronics and Stars Microelectronics, took place over the weekend at the Sanand plant in Gujarat.
