Union Cabinet clears a new Dholera semiconductor unit

The Cabinet approved two more chip units under the India Semiconductor Mission — one of them a compound-semiconductor display-module fab at Dholera.

The Union Cabinet, chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, has approved two new semiconductor manufacturing units under the India Semiconductor Mission — a combined investment of more than ₹3,936 crore — and one of them is at Dholera.

The Dholera unit, led by Crystal Matrix Limited, is an integrated compound-semiconductor facility: it will fabricate and package Mini- and Micro-LED display modules and offer gallium-nitride (GaN) foundry services, with applications spanning TVs, smartphones, in-car displays and XR glasses. The second unit — Suchi Semicon's OSAT plant for discrete semiconductors — is in Surat. Together they are expected to create more than 2,200 skilled jobs.

It is the second chip project to land in Dholera after the flagship Tata–PSMC fab — early evidence that an anchor plant pulls a cluster in behind it.
