KEY POINTS

·        The accelerating trend of India’s digital ecosystem, along with new communication architectures like 5G and 6G and heavily-connected IoT device frameworks, is racking up massive demand for electronics in India.

·        India must figure out how to ensure a steady supply of cutting-edge electronics and devices to citizens without depending on foreign players like China.

·        Electronics imports are currently at $40 billion, and are expected to increase to $200 billion soon surpassing even oil imports.

·        The government realised this handicap early and launched the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme with incentives based on production and value addition.

·        Large MNCs like Samsung from South Korea and Xiaomi from China are now setting up factories in India.

·        The success of the PLI scheme demonstrates the value of good governance in advancing India’s digital ecosystem. The next step to digital self-reliance is chip fabrication.

·        It requires extensive indigenous investment and physical infrastructure to complement the abundance of human capital.

·        India requires its most prominent companies and business leaders like Reliance, the Tatas and Azim Premji to take leadership.

·        It will create the perfect base to have a world-class chip fabrication ecosystem in India.

·        India must support the installation of several generations of chip fabrication plants and the intentional development of a total ecosystem.
