About this episode

The Tata Group is investing a whopping Rs 91,000 crore to build India's first semiconductor fabrication plant! Semiconductors are the brains of modern devices, from toasters to phones to electric vehicles. The Indian government aims to make India a $1 trillion electronics hub in 5 years, and Tata – also the only Indian supplier to Apple – is at the forefront of this mission. Are the conglomerate’s bets truly audacious? Dia Rekhi talks about strategy, possibilities, and challenges with Pankaj Mohindroo, Chairman - India Cellular & Electronics Association (ICEA), Neil Shah, Partner & Co-Founder - Counterpoint Research, and Sunil Mithas, Professor.
