After Micron Technology inaugurated India’s first large-scale ATMP facility in Sanand, CG Semi Private Limited is on track to begin commercial operations, according to its chairman, G C Chaturvedi, who delivered an address at the inauguration of Gujarat SemiConnect Conference 2026.“CG Semi completed its first Sanand plant in Aug 2025, and will start commercial production later this year,” he said. Sources close to the development confirmed that the Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly and Test (OSAT) plant will begin commercial production in the next month and a half.“The second facility, due 2027, will take the combined capacity to roughly 4 billion chips annually to cater primarily to the automotive industry, industrial infrastructure, and IoT applications.”CG Semi Private Limited is a joint venture subsidiary of CG Power and Industrial Solutions, established to build the OSAT facility in Sanand, in partnership with Japan’s Renesas Electronics Corporation and Thailand’s Stars Microelectronics. It is investing over Rs 7,600 crore over over years to set up two facilities (G1 and G2) for advanced packaging and testing.“While anchor players started laying strong foundations, it is imperative that we accelerate the development of a comprehensive ecosystem encompassing suppliers of raw material and equipment, academic institutions, training centres and R&D hubs. With the forthcoming ISM 2.0 policy, we are confident that all these gaps will be bridged, enabling India to emerge as a true semiconductor superpower in the next decade,” he added.
