Can you imagine a world where India is at the forefront of semiconductor technology? Prime Minister Narendra Modi has just announced that by the end of 2025, India will unveil its very first domestically manufactured semiconductor chip, marking a significant leap toward becoming a global tech leader.

Speaking at The Economic Times World Leaders Forum, Modi reflected on the lost opportunities over the decades, lamenting how the country missed the semiconductor manufacturing boat 50 to 60 years ago. “We all know that semiconductor manufacturing could have started in India decades ago, but the situation has changed dramatically now,” he asserted with conviction.

Modi emphasized that the landscape of semiconductor production is transforming as factories start to spring up across India. “By the end of this year, the first Made in India chip will come to market,” he stated, stirring excitement among tech enthusiasts and industry leaders alike.

But that’s not all; he also revealed that India is rapidly advancing towards the ambitious goal of developing a Made-in-India 6G network. With technology evolving every day, this is a bold move that positions India to keep pace with global advancements in telecommunications.

As if that weren’t enough, Modi also highlighted India’s emerging role in the electric vehicle (EV) sector. “India is now going to export electric vehicles to 100 countries of the world,” he announced, showcasing the country’s commitment to becoming a significant player in the global EV market. With a major program related to this launch set to take place soon, the buzz surrounding India’s automotive ambitions is palpable.

“India, which follows the mantra of Reform, Perform, Transform, is in a position to guide the world out of its slow growth rate,” Modi concluded with fervor. As India embarks on this technological journey, it seems poised to turn potential into reality and redefine its role on the global stage.
