GUWAHATI, Dec 27: India’s electronics sector is undergoing a structural transformation, moving decisively from episodic growth to a value-driven, execution-focused phase, with policymakers, industry leaders and ecosystem stakeholders aligned on building resilient and globally competitive value chains.
Discussions held through 2025 indicate that the country’s electronics growth story is no longer limited to scale expansion but is increasingly centred on deeper value addition, localisation and sustainability.

Stakeholders across government, global and domestic industry, and academia have converged on priorities such as policy support and incentives, electronics value addition, skilling, academic partnerships and industry collaboration.
The semiconductor segment, in particular, has entered what industry participants describe as a shift “from intent to execution”.
With policy frameworks in place, attention has turned to building competitive semiconductor value chains encompassing chip design, fabrication, advanced packaging and OSAT (outsourced semiconductor assembly and test).
Human capital development, joint research and development, and technology transfer have emerged as critical enablers in this phase.
Over the next three years, experts say disciplined execution and localisation across design, manufacturing and advanced packaging will be crucial.
A greater use of locally manufactured semiconductors and components is expected to play a central role in strengthening electronics value addition and enabling scalable manufacturing.
Industry leaders note that these measures will support the production of high-volume electronic products for domestic consumption while also enhancing India’s competitiveness in global markets.
The emphasis on execution, product creation and collaborative R&D is being seen as key to ensuring the long-term success of India’s electronics and semiconductor ecosystem, marking a clear inflection point in its industrial growth trajectory.
