the country.
• Changing global landscapes in electronics design and
manufacturing capabilities, and cost structures have
turned the attention of global companies towards India.
• State of Play:
− 65% of the electronics is currently imported;
− 25-30% of the systems simply assembled;
− less than 10% of the electronic systems are
completely designed and manufactured in India.
− Almost 100% of semiconductors are imported.
• Domestic production can cater to a demand of only $100
Bn by 2020… demand-supply gap of $300 Bn.
Electronics imports, are currently the 3rd highest, next to crude and gold.
Top 10 electronic products contributing about 70% by

The most common components that go into the Bill of Materials (BoM) for manufacturing electronic products include the
following:
Manufacturing Opportunity
• Power devices and semiconductors
• Processor
• Memory
• Printed circuit board (PCB)
• LCD display
• Transformer
• Absence of a local fab implies complete reliance on
imports for these components.
• India’s FAB initiative is expected to usher at least 2
semiconductor fabs facilities in the foreseeable feature.
• Given the numerous applications that require processing
capability, creating an India-specific processor design,
and fabricating them in local chips shall ensure a
significant contribution to the local value addition.
1. Semiconductors
India Opportunity
• Global hub for VLSI and board design
• Strong third party design service providers
• Huge domestic electronics consumption market
• Presence of R&D and design centres of the top 23
global semiconductor majors
India Opportunity

6. 6
Manufacturing Opportunity (contd..)
• India has a good number of PCB manufacturers in the country.
• However the local capability is restricted to producing single,
dual and multi layered PCBs of up to 8-12 layers.
• The PCBs needed in telecom, consumer and automotive
applications, which require complex multi-layered PCBs are
imported.
• Need for design and manufacturing of multi-layered PCBs of
up to 64+ layers.
2. Printed Circuit Board (PCB)
India Opportunity
• PCB manufacturing capability exists locally
• Strengths in single, dual layers
• Capability to do multiple layers too
for less complex applications
• Export market exists
India Opportunity
• India possesses local design and manufacturing capabilities
for some of the end use products. However, the cost of
production of panels and its technology-intensive nature
have kept India void of an LCD display
assembling/manufacturing unit hitherto.
• High volume demand anticipated in the various products
that consume displays, makes it pertinent to grow the
ecosystem for LCD displays locally.
3. LCD Displays
India Opportunity
• Huge consumption demand
• End use product manufacturing through OEMS and
EMS exists
• Favourable incentives for panel
manufacturing available under MSIPS
India Opportunity

7. 7
Manufacturing Opportunity (contd..)
