The project is set to produce 15 million chips per day, significantly enhancing India's semiconductor manufacturing capabilities.

Covid-19 Impact on Global Semiconductor Market

The pandemic has led to a sudden and unexpected increase in the demand for consumer electronic devices, which has caused a surge in global semiconductor revenues. The COVID-19 pandemic, with its global impact, endangered production in the entire supply chain industry. After a steep decline in global semiconductor revenues, a shortage of chip production caused extensive disruptions in the automotive industry, with huge revenue losses. These losses are expected to continue throughout the years to come, making the industry a low priority among global fabricators.

Looking ahead, the semiconductor market's post-COVID-19 situation is expected to remain stable. The adoption of digital technologies is likely to continue, thereby driving the demand for semiconductors across various industries, including automotive and healthcare. However, the industry is facing challenges such as supply chain disruptions, rising costs, and geopolitical tensions.

Impact of The Russia-Ukraine War on the Global Semiconductor Market

The conflict between Russia and Ukraine has had a significant impact on the Global Semiconductor Market. The war has caused an increase in the prices of semiconductors, leading to a decrease in their demand. The rise in prices of semiconductors has been driven by the political uncertainty between the two countries, as well as the sanctions imposed on Russia by NATO. This has resulted in a decrease in the supply of Russian semiconductors, causing prices to surge significantly. The war has also influenced the value of Russian currency, increasing the cost of semiconductors imported from Russia.
