In an effort to boost the semiconductor industry of India, the incentive scheme of Rs 76,000 Crore was unleashed back in December 2021. Apart from this, the finance minister allocated Rs 3,000 crore in the budget session of FY 2023-24 and this year the amount has been increased to Rs 6,903 Crore. This move is an escalation of more than 200 percent in regards to…
In the current product mix, out of the 100 billion dollars, we are actually manufacturing 52.7 percent of the electronics components, according to last year's data.
The union government, policymakers, and the manufacturers have been undertaking key initiatives to boost the country’s electronics and semiconductor manufacturing…
Over the past couple of years, India has already started boosting its semiconductor industry with the launch of an incentive scheme of Rs, 76,000 crores in December 2021. In an effort to fulfill the mission of the union government, the Indian Semiconductor Mission (ISM) was formed, which aims to build a vibrant semiconductor and display ecosystem. Apart from that,…
First responders often work in harsh and potentially dangerous environments during their duties, whether in extreme heat when fighting fires or under exposure to toxins and other pollutants on the site of man-made disasters. The ramifications of working in such challenging conditions can include short- and long-term health consequences for first responders. Many of…
The term MEMS stands for Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems, now that we know what the full form of MEMS is lets try and understand what it is. MEMS is a combination of micrometer-sized devices composed of both electronic components and mechanical moving parts. These are miniature machines on a microscopic scale, meaning the physical dimensions of a MEMS can be anywhere from…
With the onset of COVID-19 pandemic, one of the major hindrances faced by the chip industry is the supply chain imbalance. Apart from the pandemic, a huge amount of trade scuffles coupled with geopolitical tussle are proving to be extremely dangerous for this industry. Some experts and analysts have stated that by the end of 2024, production shortage will be…
India’s Electronics System Design & Manufacturing (ESDM) is growing at a rapid scale, which is expected to grow at a CAGR of 32.5 percent from FY22 to FY27 as opposed to 22.2 percent CAGR recorded from FY17 to FY22, as per a report by Niveshaay, a SEBI based research body. But amid these huge growth potentials, there are a couple of grave challenges such as high…
