The inauguration, along with the commercial launch of the Multi-Chip Intelligent Module (MCM), underscores India’s growing strength in advanced packaging, system integration, and scalable semiconductor manufacturing. It reflects tangible progress on the ground as India builds a resilient and globally competitive semiconductor ecosystem.
The Kaynes semiconductor facility in Sanand, with an investment of approximately ₹3,300 crore, represents a decisive step beyond design into advanced assembly, testing, and packaging (ATMP). With an expected capacity of nearly 60 lakh chips per day, the facility will significantly boost domestic manufacturing capability while driving local economic development and strengthening ancillary industries.
As a valued member of IESA, Kaynes Semicon’s achievement highlights the increasing depth and maturity of India’s semiconductor ecosystem—from design and engineering to packaging and product commercialisation. The successful launch of the Multi-Chip Module is a strong indicator that India is now not only designing but also manufacturing sophisticated semiconductor products at scale.
Notably, the inauguration of two semiconductor facilities within a single month, with several more projects slated for rollout this year, reinforces India’s unwavering commitment to building a robust semiconductor ecosystem. This rapid pace of execution reflects strong policy alignment and effective coordination led by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY), the India Semiconductor Mission (ISM), and proactive support from state governments such as Government of Gujarat. It sends a clear signal to global investors and industry stakeholders that India is accelerating from intent to sustained, large-scale execution in the semiconductor sector.
This milestone assumes even greater significance as India targets a $400 billion electronics market and a $103 billion semiconductor market by 2030. Achieving these ambitions will require sustained execution across the value chain, and developments such as Kaynes’ facility demonstrate that India is firmly on that path.
Strengthening domestic semiconductor capabilities will be critical for supply chain resilience, technological leadership, and the creation of high-quality skilled jobs. Importantly, India is now converting global supply chain shifts into a strategic advantage by building a comprehensive, end-to-end semiconductor ecosystem.
The transformation of Sanand from an automobile hub into a fast-emerging semiconductor cluster further reinforces the momentum of the Make in India vision and positions India as a credible and competitive player in the global semiconductor landscape.
