India has established five semiconductor plants focused solely on packaging and testing chips (OSAT), without manufacturing chips at scale, lagging behind countries like China and Malaysia in the semiconductor value chain.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Semiconductors.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

India's semiconductor sector focus on packaging rather than chip making shifts the opportunity to supply or serve the assembly market, not fabrication. If you build chipmaking tools or fabs, India's current setup limits your market.
