₹8.2 Lakh Crore in Electronics, But Can India Master Chipmaking?

Video Description

India’s electronics industry is on the rise—₹8.2 lakh crore and counting. But while the country is becoming a global leader in smartphone production, there’s a new, more pressing question: can India truly build its own chips? In this episode of Point Break, we explore the next frontier for India’s tech ambitions. We break down the government’s push for a self-reliant electronics supply chain through the Electronics Component Manufacturing Scheme (ECMS), designed to move beyond assembly and dive into the heart of tech—modules, components, and, most importantly, semiconductors. While India is already the world’s second-largest mobile phone producer, the question remains: how do we close the gap in high-value component manufacturing? The answer lies in self-reliance—building not just the products, but the very building blocks of the tech revolution. We take you inside the moves being made by industry giants like Tata Electronics and Micron, who are spearheading the charge to bring semiconductor manufacturing to India. Plus, we look at how India’s growing tech ecosystem—from AI-driven startups to the government's push for innovation—is setting the stage for the next phase of growth. With global supply chains shifting, and big companies like Apple eyeing India as their next manufacturing hub, the stakes have never been higher. Can India lead the world in both electronics and AI? Join us as we uncover the story of India’s journey to tech self-reliance. This is more than just about phones and chips—it’s about building an ecosystem that works at scale, with innovation at its core.
