The Tata Electronics–Powerchip joint venture fab at Dholera has shipped its first commercial batch of 28nm chips, marking the moment India formally joined the club of semiconductor manufacturing nations.
The first silicon is headed to automotive electronics suppliers, where 28nm remains the workhorse node for microcontrollers, infotainment and battery management systems.
The plant is ramping toward 50,000 wafer starts per month by late 2027, with a second phase already under evaluation for 22nm.
