Minister of State for Electronics and Information Technology, Jitin Prasada, has reportedly said that the country’s first homegrown chip is expected to be launched by the end of this year.

“The first packaged chip is expected to be out by December 2025,” the minister was quoted as saying in an ANI report.

He also underlined the status of India’s nascent yet progressing semiconductor ecosystem.

Prasada reportedly said that the government has laid a pathway towards an India that will build chips for the world, aligned across the supply chain, from assembly/testing to design, and manufacturing to exports.

Union minister Ashwini Vaishnaw first unveiled the vision of the ‘Made in India’chip during his address at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, in January, highlighting India’s goal to launch its first-ever chip by year-end.

Following this, reports surfaced that Kaynes Semicon, a subsidiary of electronics manufacturing company Kaynes Technologies, was reportedly planningto deliver India’s first packaged semiconductor chip by July this year. However, it is unclear if the target was met.
