Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurates commercial production at CG Semi’s semiconductor assembly and testing plant in Sanand, Gujarat. Multiple outlets report that the facility begins operations as an outsourced semiconductor assembly and test (OSAT) site, focusing on packaging and related testing steps rather than front-end chip fabrication. Bloomberg and The Next Web both say the plant’s initial annual capacity is 200 million chips. The Next Web adds that company plans call for scaling output to 500 million chips per year. Bloomberg frames the launch as another milestone in India’s effort to develop a domestic chip industry and improve participation in the global semiconductor supply chain. The Next Web also notes the reported investment value of about $870 million for the Gujarat facility. The plant is expected to ramp production following the inauguration, with initial output targeting 200 million chips annually and later expansion contingent on scaling plans.
