Foxconn, in collaboration with India's HCL Group, has received approval to establish a semiconductor facility in Uttar Pradesh, with an investment of 37 billion Indian rupees. Set to operate by 2027, the plant will focus on testing and assembling display driver chips for various devices. While India currently lacks advanced fabrication capabilities, this project is positioned as an essential step in India's effort to develop its semiconductor industry, aligning with Apple's strategy to reduce reliance on Chinese manufacturing.
Once this unit is there, the display panel [manufacturing] will also come to India, it will have a capacity of 20,000 wafers per month and can produce 36 million units monthly.
The plant will initially focus on semiconductor assembly and testing rather than fabricating chips due to India's current limitations in advanced chip fabrication facilities.
