What it is

Tata Electronics is the Tata Group’s electronics manufacturing and semiconductor company. At Dholera in Gujarat it is building a 300mm wafer fab with Taiwan’s PSMC. The fab is planned for 28 to 110nm chips and up to 50,000 wafers a month. At Jagiroad in Assam it runs an assembly and test (OSAT) plant that began pilot production in 2026.

Why it matters for AI

The Dholera fab is the first commercial 300mm fab planned in India and sits at the heart of the country’s chip push. It targets mature-node analog and logic chips for cars, phones and AI uses. Neither plant makes the leading-edge GPUs or HBM at the centre of the memory wall.
