Bhumi Pujan ceremony of Tata Group’s ₹27,000 crore semiconductor assembly and test facility in Jagiroad, Assam was conducted recently.
Tata announced in February 2024 that the Indian government had accepted Tata Electronics’ proposal to construct a cutting-edge, greenfield semiconductor assembly and testing facility in Assam.
The project is estimated to create around 27,000 direct and indirect jobs in the region, with an investment outlay of ₹27,000 crores.
By mid-2025, the new facility should be operating.
Because Assam is close to water supplies, green energy sources, and test hubs in Southeast Asian nations, it was an important location.
Use cases for the facility and semiconductor chips include mobile devices, artificial intelligence, and the automobile sector.
