I exactly want to know what is India's current position in Semiconductor Manufacturing, Government Policies, Future Opportunities especially for Automotive Sector.
 
In recent years, the automotive industry has witnessed a transformative wave propelled by advanced technologies, from lidar sensors to smart camera-based systems. At the core of these advancements lies an escalating reliance on semiconductors, marking them as one of the fastest-growing segments in the global semiconductor industry.

The Rise of Automotive Semiconductors

The surge in popularity of electric vehicles (EVs) and autonomous driving has fueled a demand for advancements in semiconductor technology within the automotive sector. These innovations are not merely about making cars smarter but also enhancing energy efficiency.

The Rise of Automotive Semiconductors

The surge in popularity of electric vehicles (EVs) and autonomous driving has fueled a demand for advancements in semiconductor technology within the automotive sector. These innovations are not merely about making cars smarter but also enhancing energy efficiency.
Benefits of Semiconductor Technologies across various facets of the automotive industry:

Semiconductor technology enables features like route mapping and real-time road closure updates through in-vehicle GPS, enhancing the driver's experience. High-grade legacy node semiconductors fine-tune preinstalled systems, ensuring reliable and accurate control of the vehicle's computing system.

Semiconductors simplify the complexities of managing hybrid vehicle batteries, improving fuel combustion efficiency, and optimizing energy restoration in electric vehicles through regenerative braking systems.

The role of semiconductor technology in automotive safety is unmistakable. From powering features like cruise control and emergency braking systems to facilitating blind-spot detection and parking camera assist, semiconductors enable real-time responses critical for autonomous driving.

Autonomous Vehicles (AVs) represent a significant revolution, and advanced semiconductors are crucial for fine-tuning these highly sophisticated models, allowing vehicles to move from point to point without human intervention.

Semiconductors act as the bridge between software solutions for automotive applications and the functions of modern-age cars, enabling features like cruise control, voice-controlled GPS navigation, and over-the-air (OTA) updates.

Modern semiconductors contribute to higher efficiency, resulting in less power loss and extended battery life. This efficiency allows automotive OEMs to design new car architectures through space reductions enabled by smaller batteries.​
 
I exactly want to know what is India's current position in Semiconductor Manufacturing, Government Policies, Future Opportunities especially for Automotive Sector.

India has a lot of microchip design outsourcing, and zero commerical microchip manufacturing. This is the current situation on the ground.

Government policies: India been soliciting foreign IC makers to set up a shop in India for the last 30 years, with no result to this day. Free land, zero tax on the table, but they are still not coming. There are no prohibitive tariffs on components, but there is no significant component import to begin with. What's imported are final goods.

Future opportunities: an obvious huge knock down assembly potential from semi-finished kits. Delhi blocks imports of complete products, and importers naturally switch to the next best/easiest thing.

While studding on India Semiconductor Market I have received these numbers, “India Semiconductor Market Excepted to hit US $13.56 billion by the year 2030 with 8.5% CAGR”. I think this will boost the market and India will chive more than this number. The drastic change in Indian Government Policies and initiatives like “India Semiconductor Mission (ISM)” will helps Indian market to grow rapidly.

The Indian government has taken decisive steps to boost semiconductor manufacturing:

Semicon India Program
: This initiative aims to provide financial support to companies investing in semiconductors, display manufacturing, and the design ecosystem.

Production-Linked Incentives: A $10 billion incentive plan has been approved to attract electronics manufacturers. It provides fiscal support for semiconductor fabs and display manufacturing, aiming to reduce reliance on Chinese supplies.

India Semiconductor Mission (ISM): Established as an Independent Business Division, ISM focuses on driving long-term strategies for the semiconductor design ecosystem.

SEWFAP: The Semiconductor Wafer FAB Acquisition Program assists Indian companies in acquiring semiconductor fabrication facilities outside India.

Modified Special Incentive Package Scheme (M-SIPS): This scheme offers financial incentives for setting up new semiconductor manufacturing units, providing subsidies of up to 25% of capital expenditure.​

As India is changing its policies from 2014 when Mr. Modi become first time PM of India. He started changes in basic infrastructure structure & old policies. Which helps to attract From 2019 when Mr. Modi elected second time As PM of India, see highest growth Economy as a result of last 5 years works. Companies like Hon Hai Precision Industry Co. Going to start manufacturing unite in India. TATA Group Invested USD 25 Million Narasapura in Kolar district in semiconductor testing and packing unit. I thing these changes will Indian Semiconductor Market to grow faster.
