Tata Technologies is close to launching its chip manufacturing unit in Assam, with a supply chain that does not rely on China.
Tata Technologies has announced that its chip manufacturing plant in Assam is almost ready for operations. The company has secured a supply chain that excludes Chinese components, aiming to reduce geopolitical risks.
The facility, part of Tata’s push into semiconductor production, will focus on producing chips for automotive and industrial applications. By sourcing components from non‑Chinese suppliers, Tata hopes to meet domestic demand while avoiding supply disruptions.
Industry analysts view the move as a strategic step to strengthen India’s semiconductor ecosystem. The plant’s launch is expected to create jobs and boost local manufacturing capabilities in the region.
