India's first semiconductor plant in Gujarat || First semiconductor factory to build in India

The Indian government is going to set up India's first semiconductor plant in Gujarat. Vedanta is an investor in the semiconductor factory in India. Its chairman Anil Agarwal says that as soon as the semiconductor factory is built, the price of one lakh laptops in India will come down to 40,000. This idea of a semiconductor plant in Gujrat is gonna be a game changer.

The Indian government is going to set up India's first semiconductor plant in Gujarat. Vedanta is an investor in the semiconductor factory in India. Its chairman Anil Agarwal says that as soon as the semiconductor factory is built, the price of one lakh laptops in India will come down to 40,000. This idea of a semiconductor plant in Gujrat is gonna be a game changer.

What is semiconductor

Semiconductors are, in a way, the brains of every electronic device. As we know, conductors conduct electricity and insulators register electricity. And both are used in making a circuit. Using both in the same circuit makes the circuit quite heavy. In this case, the semiconductor is used. Semiconductors can act as both conductors and insulators. These consist of hundreds of millions of tiny transistors. Which helps run any logical operation.TV, Mobile Phone, AC, Wrist Watch, Car, ATM Card Semiconductor is used in every electronic device today. About 1 trillion semiconductors are made every year.

What will be the profit from the semiconductor factory in India

India's first semiconductor plant in Gujarat will reduce the cost of electronic devices in India. It has been clarified by the chairman of Vedanta that laptops sold in one lakh will be available for only 40000. Even today many rural areas in India do not have access to electronic devices. Many people are still deprived of these facilities. According to the report of the Times of India, only 23% of the people in India have computers in cities and only 4% in villages. In this case, India's first semiconductor plant in Gujarat can prove to be very effective.


India is dependent on semiconductor chips from other countries.

India is completely dependent on other countries for these semiconductor chips. About 97% of semiconductors in India are imported from outside. India Imports semiconductor chips from these China, Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, USA.

Presently, SCL Manufacturer’s semiconductors located in Mohali, India make chips of 180-nanometer power percent. This is why many small chips are manufactured from them all over the world.

Why India lags in semiconductors?

Many big companies in India did not want to invest in it. The reason for this is that the returns are not available immediately but after a long time. Apart from this, the Government of India imposes higher tariffs on electronic devices coming from outside. Due to this the prices of imported items increase. So India's first semiconductor plant in Gujarat could be a great revolution.

How is a semiconductor chip made?

  • For example, before a building is built, its design is prepared. Similarly, semiconductor chips are designed before they are made. The design work is done on the software. Israel ranks first in chip design.

  • After chip designing, its manufacturing work is done. The company that manufactures semiconductor chips is called foundries. Taiwan ranks best in this sector. Taiwan makes up about 63% of the world's superconductors. Asus MSI, Gigabyte is a Taiwanese company that manufactures Father Mother Board, and apart from this 13% are made in America. 

  • After that, it is assembled. In which an integrated circuit ie IC is made by mixing all the parts.

  • No country has been able to fully manufacture semiconductor chips to date.
