[NEW DELHI] India is seeking to make advanced semiconductors within years, underscoring its ambitions to expand its tech manufacturing economy.<\/p>\n

The aim is to make the transition from producing 28 nanometre chips to 2 nanometres, federal technology minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said at the Times Group\u2019s Global Business Summit on Saturday (Feb 14).  \u201cIt\u2019s going to be a very measured journey, we are not doing anything in haste,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n

New Delhi is likely to soon announce a fresh chip manufacturing initiative, including new funding, that will focus on design. At least 50 Indian deep-tech companies will be involved. Three domestic chip facilities are expected to start commercial production this year.<\/p>\n

India\u2019s semiconductor push is in its early stages. The world\u2019s most populous nation has used a US$10 billion fund to fuel its chip programme, helping to bring about several assembly, packaging and testing ventures.<\/p>\n

Micron Technology has set up a plant in Prime Minister Narendra Modi\u2019s home state of Gujarat, and conglomerate Tata Group is one of 10 producers that will fabricate silicon domestically. BLOOMBERG<\/p>\n
