Funding of roughly 1.27 lakh crore Indian rupees targets six pillars of the semiconductor ecosystem.
Support includes financial aid for design firms, equipment makers, chip factories, packaging units, research projects, and skill training.
An expert committee chaired by senior scientific and security advisers will select priority chip categories.
The program seeks to make India self‑sufficient in chips used for electronics, cars, communications, and defence.
The initiative supports the entire value chain, including design, manufacturing equipment, fabrication plants, assembly, testing, research, and talent development.
A high‑level expert panel will identify strategic chips for additional incentives, aiming to reduce dependence on foreign supplies.
