India has taken a significant step forward in semiconductor manufacturing with Polymatech Electronics, a leading semiconductor company, officially commencing production of semiconductor chips at its state-of-the-art facility in Kancheepuram, Tamil Nadu. This milestone marks a critical boost to India’s ambition of achieving self-reliance in semiconductor technology, a sector of strategic importance globally.
The Kancheepuram plant is equipped with cutting-edge technology and cleanroom facilities to produce high-quality chips for applications in automotive, telecommunications, consumer electronics, and industrial automation. Polymatech’s entry into large-scale production positions Tamil Nadu as a key player in India’s growing semiconductor ecosystem.
“Our Kancheepuram facility is a testament to India’s potential to become a global semiconductor hub,” said a Polymatech spokesperson. “We are committed to leveraging advanced technologies to support the country’s demand for indigenous chip manufacturing.”
The commencement of operations aligns with Tamil Nadu’s vision of becoming a global hub for high-tech industries. It also supports India’s broader strategy under the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme to boost electronics and semiconductor production, reducing dependence on imports.
With Polymatech’s investment and technological expertise, the facility is set to contribute significantly to India’s semiconductor capabilities, fostering innovation, reducing supply chain vulnerabilities, and supporting the country’s burgeoning tech-driven economy.
