ROHM Co., Ltd. and Tata Electronics, a pioneering leader in India’s electronics and semiconductor manufacturing sector, announced a strategic partnership to manufacture semiconductors in India for both domestic and global markets. The collaboration leverages each company’s strengths to expand business opportunities and deepen ties between the Japanese and Indian semiconductor ecosystems.
As an initial focus, the partners will establish a manufacturing framework for power semiconductors in India by combining ROHM’s device technologies with Tata Electronics’ advanced backend capabilities. By integrating sales channels and networks, the partnership aims to unlock new opportunities in the Indian market and deliver higher-value solutions to a broad customer base.
As the first step, Tata Electronics will assemble and test ROHM’s India-designed automotive-grade Nch 100 V, 300 A Si MOSFET in a TOLL package, with mass production shipments targeted for next year. The companies will also explore co-development of high-value packaging technologies and will jointly market products manufactured through the collaboration.
The partnership embodies the Government of India’s “Make in India” vision and the philosophy of “Designed in India, Manufactured in India.” By building an end-to-end ecosystem that includes design, development and manufacturing within India, the ROHM–Tata partnership enhances Domestic Value Addition and supports a stable supply of products optimized for local market needs, with global reach.
“Tata Electronics is deeply committed to pioneering a thriving semiconductor industry in India. We are excited to partner with ROHM, a global leader in semiconductor solutions. With a strong legacy of quality and reliability across products for a broad range of markets, ROHM brings deep domain expertise to this partnership. Through our semiconductor assembly and test facilities, Tata Electronics will deliver advanced chip packaging services to support ROHM in creating products tailored for Indian and global markets. This partnership will go a long way in bringing in trust and resilience in the global semiconductor supply chain while also expanding our respective business opportunities,” said Dr. Randhir Thakur, CEO & MD, Tata Electronics.
“We are delighted to collaborate with Tata Electronics, a leading Indian corporate group with advanced packaging capabilities. Through this partnership, we aim to expand our lineup of packaged products manufactured in India and help build a sustainable, region-based supply chain network. We are confident that this collaboration will enable us to meet the growing demand from Indian customers seeking domestically produced semiconductors. We also envision supplying jointly manufactured products to the global market,” said Dr. Kazuhide Ino, Member of the Board, Managing Executive Officer, ROHM Co., Ltd.
