The GOI has set up the India Semiconductor Mission (ISM) and has launched four schemes viz. we called "ISM-FOUR"
Scheme for setting up of Semiconductor Fabs in India
Scheme for setting up of Display Fabs in India
Scheme for setting up of Compound Semiconductors / Silicon Photonics / Sensors Fab and Semiconductor Assembly, Testing, Marking and Packaging (ATMP) / OSAT facilities in India
Design Linked Incentive (DI-I) Scheme
The Scheme for Semiconductor Fabs pledges up to 50% support in the project cost on pari-passu basis and the Scheme for Display Fabs provides support of up to 50% of project cost up to 12,000 Cr. per project. Further, the Government of India has allocated funds to the tune 76,000 Cr. for these four schemes.
The Government of Gujarat is desirous of becoming the pioneer State in realizing the Government of India's mission to make India a global hub for ESDM sector and help in creating a robust semiconductor and display manufacturing ecosystem, equaling that of the existing East Asian region.
GUJARAT SEMICONDUCTOR POLICY
The Gujarat Semiconductor Policy (2022-27) will facilitate the eligible projects for land allotment, enable expedited process approvals, ready access to utilities such as power, water, gas and other industrial infrastructure besides the fiscal incentive support package under this policy. To make Gujarat a pioneer State in developing the Indian ESDM ecosystem by facilitating effective and timely execution of the eligible projects for setting up of a robust Semiconductor and Display Fab Ecosystem, and thereby creating more employment giving boost to socio-economic development of the State.
