India Semiconductor Market Overview and Size

India’s Semiconductor Industry is at the growth stage. It is expected to grow at a CAGR of 19.7% from 2022F to 2026F. The semiconductor industry in India is 100% import driven. Countries exporting semiconductors to India include China, Taiwan, the USA, Japan, etc. India has an advantage of designing chips. However, weak research & development (R&D) focus, prohibitive costs of acquiring intellectual property (IP), and limited start-up capital have inhibited the potential of local design houses.

The degree of integration, level of customization, programmability and the process technology utilized to manufacture the semiconductor. Advances in semiconductor technology have increased the functionality and performance of semiconductors, improved their features and power consumption characteristics while reduced their size and cost. The vision of India’s Atma Nirbharta in electronics & semiconductors market was given momentum by approving the Semicon India programme with a total outlay of INR 76,000 crore for the development of semiconductor and display manufacturing ecosystem in India. There are many design centres in India. All the global companies design their chips in India and they take the prototypes and send it to respective base countries or Taiwan for manufacturing.

India’s Semiconductor Market Segmentation

By Type of Semiconductors (Intrinsic, Extrinsic):

Demand for intrinsic and extrinsic semiconductors is the same in India. Extrinsic semiconductors are used in transistors, bipolar transistors and field-effect transistors. Silicon and germanium are examples of intrinsic semiconductors.

By Type of Design (VLSI, EDA, Embedded Software):

VLSI design dominates the market with the highest market share, followed by EDA and Embedded Software. Embedded design would be little less as manufacturing in India is negligible and normally embedded application site happens near the fabs.

By Region (North, South, East, West):

Southern Region of India dominates the Semiconductor Manufacturing Market. Majority of the manufacturing companies and their plants are located in states like Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. Currently, there are no centres for design or research and development in the Eastern Region of India.

By Application (Mobile, IT, Consumer Electronics, Automotive, Others):

Semiconductors are used in microchips which are used in electronics devices such as the computer, mobile etc. All types of transistors are used in building blocks of logic gates.

The use of semiconductors is majorly in mobile phone devices. Mobiles constitute the highest market share.

By Type of Distribution Channel (Online, Offline):

Offline distribution channel dominates the market with more than 90% of the market share. Online distribution channel is new and has not been picked up yet in India.

By Type of Distributors (International, Local):

There are distributors who are selling the product from Singapore or Hong Kong. There are regional distributors who are selling the product from within India. International distributors dominate the market with the highest market share.

Competitive Landscape in India’s Semiconductor Manufacturing Industry

Indonesia’s Used Smartphone Industry is consolidated with presence of only a few dominant players in the industry. There are many different semiconductor companies on a global basis, including both integrated device manufacturers (“IDMs”) as well as fabless companies. Nearly all of them invest extensively in research and development, manufacturing, sales and marketing capabilities across a broad spectrum of product lines.

Globally, there are ~100 brands of semiconductors, 5000 design companies and 100 fabs to manufacture, out of which ~20 fabs carry out 80% of the task. The main player being TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company). Currently, most of the manufacturing processes are carried out in China and Taiwan.

India’s Semiconductor IndustryFuture Outlook and Projections

The market size is expected to grow at a five-year CAGR of ~20% by 2027. With the growing demand by end user industries such as industrial machinery, automobiles, telecommunication equipment, office automation, among others for computing purposes is expected to accelerate the growth of the semiconductor market in the coming years. With internet penetration expected to reach 900 million users in the next few years from 622 million users in 2020, there will be an increasing adoption of smart devices, hence, contributing to the semiconductor market growth.
