Surat (Gujarat) [India], December 16:<\/strong> <\/span>Suchi Semicon, a Gujarat-based semiconductor company, has officially inaugurated Gujarat\u2019s first Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly and Testing (OSAT) plant in Surat, a significant step towards enhancing India\u2019s semiconductor manufacturing capabilities. The state-of-the-art facility was inaugurated by Union Minister C.R. Patil and Gujarat\u2019s Home Minister Harsh Sanghavi. The plant, with an initial area of 30,000-square-foot facility, will provide essential assembly, testing, and packaging services for semiconductor components, supporting industries such as automotive, consumer electronics, and industrial applications. Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated Suchi Semicon on the opening of the OSAT plant, appreciating the company\u2019s contribution to making India self-reliant in semiconductor manufacturing. In alignment with the government\u2019s Atmanirbhar Bharat vision, this initiative aims to reduce India\u2019s dependency on imported semiconductors while strengthening the country\u2019s position in the global semiconductor supply chain. The establishment of this facility in Gujarat further positions the state as a growing hub for high-tech manufacturing, fostering innovation and technological growth.<\/p>\n

Following the inauguration, Suchi Semicon proudly showcased its semiconductor chip, labeled \u201cMade in India,\u201d highlighting its contribution to India\u2019s self-reliance in semiconductor manufacturing. With a $100 million investment, the plant, once at full capacity, will produce up to 3 million semiconductor chips daily. The company is also in advanced discussions to onboard a strategic technology partner to further enhance its capabilities and drive innovation. Engineered for rapid scaling, this facility is poised to meet the growing demand for semiconductors in both domestic and global markets, positioning India as a key player in the global semiconductor ecosystem.<\/p>\n

Established in July 2023, Suchi Semicon was founded by Ashok Mehta and Shetal Mehta. The company\u2019s entry into the semiconductor manufacturing space is noteworthy, particularly given its origins in the textile industry. The company will start with legacy packaging to ensure quality and reliability, gradually transitioning to advanced packaging technologies as the plant scales. The company\u2019s technical team, which brings over 30 years of experience, is fully capable of handling complex devices, but the initial focus on traditional packaging is a strategic decision to ensure smooth operations in the early stages.<\/p>\n

Union Jal Shakti Minister C.R. Patil said, \u201cIndia is on a transformative path towards becoming a global technology hub, and initiatives like the Suchi Semicon OSAT plant are key to realizing this vision. With the government\u2019s focus on increasing semiconductor manufacturing within India, such plants will play a crucial role in reducing dependency on imports, creating jobs, and strengthening our domestic industry. I congratulate the Suchi Semicon team for their vision and efforts in making this dream a reality, contributing to both Gujarat\u2019s and India\u2019s growth as leaders in technology and innovation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gujarat\u2019s Home Minister Harsh Sanghavi said, \u201cGujarat has always been a pioneer in promoting industrial growth and innovation. The launch of this semiconductor plant is a testament to our state\u2019s commitment to supporting high-tech industries and driving India\u2019s vision of becoming self-reliant in semiconductor manufacturing. We fully support Suchi Semicon in this mission and are confident that this facility will not only contribute to the region\u2019s economic growth but also establish Gujarat as a global leader in semiconductor manufacturing. We look forward to more such initiatives that bring innovation and create high-skilled jobs for our youth.\u201d<\/p>\n

Speaking on the occasion, Ashok Mehta, Chairman of Suchi Semicon, said, \u201cOur journey into the semiconductor industry began with a humble background in textiles, but seeing the growing gap in India\u2019s semiconductor capabilities inspired us to take this leap. India has long been dependent on imports for its semiconductor needs, and this gap presented a clear opportunity for us to make a meaningful contribution. Starting with 300,000 pieces a day, we are laying the foundation for long-term growth, including plans to scale production and explore semiconductor design in the future. Our goal is not just to manufacture chips but also to drive innovation in the Indian semiconductor ecosystem. This facility will help us reduce supply chain delays, lower logistical costs, and support the development of a self-sustaining semiconductor industry in India.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis plant features advanced Class 10,000 and 100,000 cleanroom environments and will create up to 1,200 jobs over the next five years. It is approved under Gujarat\u2019s Electronic policy and submitted under the India Semiconductor Mission, marking a significant step towards India\u2019s self-reliance in technology manufacturing. Surat and Gujarat are strategically positioned to support the growth of this ecosystem, with a skilled talent pool and strong local partnerships.\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

The inauguration was attended by approximately 600 dignitaries, including IAS Mona Khandhar, Principal Secretary, Science and Technology, Government of Gujarat; IAS Manish Gurwani, Managing Director, Gujarat State Electronics\/Biotechnology Mission; Shri Ishwar Parmar, MLA from Bardoli; Bhavini Ben Patel, Pramukh of Surat Jila Panchayat; Dr. Veerappan V.V., Chairman, IESA; A.S. Mehta, President of JK Paper.; Prithviraj Kothari, Chairman of JITO Apex; Vijay Bhandari, President of JITO Apex; Himanshu Shah, Vice Chairman of JITO Apex; and Inder Jain, Chairman of JATF, along with other key figures from the state\u2019s semiconductor and manufacturing sectors. This marked a significant step forward for Gujarat\u2019s emergence as a global semiconductor hub.<\/p>\n
