Foxconn, based in Taiwan, recently announced its intention to exit the $19.5 billion joint venture (JV) with Vedanta for semiconductor manufacture in India. The Vedanta-Foxconn joint venture, announced in September of last year, was one of the largest deals under the production-linked incentive system.
After terminating the partnership with Foxconn, Agarwal stated that the company is 100% committed to creating semiconductors, for which it has lined up partners.
“India is a land of opportunity with enormous potential.” Several enterprises are required to assist India in becoming a semiconductor and display glass hub. “We welcome Foxconn and the rest of the world to come and invest in this sector,” Agarwal said in a tweet.
Rajeev Chandrasekhar, Minister of State for Electronics and Information Technology, stated that “not one person in the semiconductor global ecosystem” does not perceive India as a “very credible, viable, and fast charging destination for semiconductor investments and innovation.”
He also stated that India is on track for the next ten years in the semiconductor field, with a $10 billion (about Rs 81,993 crore) investment, compared to China’s three decades of advancement.
“We are on track to do in the next ten years with these USD 10 billion, what countries like China took 25-30 years and could not succeed,” Chandrasekhar said on Thursday.
