Jaipur/
Bengaluru, May 2026.
The
India Electronics and Semiconductor Association (IESA), the apex industry body
representing India’s electronics and semiconductor ecosystem with over 400+
members, enthusiastically applauds and welcomes the Government of Rajasthan's
visionary semiconductor and electronics policy initiatives and today's
high-level stakeholder dialogue at the Chief Minister’s Office in Jaipur.
IESA
expresses its deepest gratitude for the graceful presence and active
participation of Shri Ashwini Vaishnaw, Hon’ble Union
Minister of Electronics & Information Technology, GoI; the Hon’ble Chief Minister of Rajasthan; the Hon’ble Minister of Industries & Commerce, Rajasthan;
and the Chief Secretary, Rajasthan. The convergence of central
vision and swift state execution underscores India’s unified commitment to
becoming a global hub for design led high-tech manufacturing. The direct,
high-level interactions between leaders and industry stakeholders today mark a
pivotal moment in fostering a collaborative, investor-friendly ecosystem.
"It
is deeply inspiring to witness state after state enthusiastically joining the
nation’s historic semiconductor and electronics journey. Rajasthan’s newly
launched Semiconductor Policy is a key milestone that injects tremendous
momentum into the country's collective mission. Driven by the India
Semiconductor Mission (ISM) and robust ESDM (Electronics System Design &
Manufacturing) strategies, India has already achieved remarkable milestones.
What started as a vision is now a rapidly scaling reality in which everyone is
excited to join in, said Mr. Ahok Chandak, President IESA.
Rajasthan
is not starting from scratch; several pioneering electronics and semiconductor
units are already fully operational in the state, including India’s first
SME-led semiconductor packaging and testing facility in Bhiwadi.Crucially, the
establishing of the Jodhpur - Pali - Marwar zone as a dedicated
semiconductor corridor perfectly reflects the core sector pulse of moving from
Sand to Silicon to Systems. This holistic policy framework ensures
that the next wave of advanced manufacturing, dark factories, and AI-assisted
chip design finds a thriving, sustainable home in Rajasthan." Added Mr.
Chandak.
IESA
extends its heartiest congratulations to the Government of Rajasthan, RIICO,
the Ministry of Electronics & Information Technology (MeitY), and all the
industry and government participants who contributed to making this high-level
dialogue a resounding success.
An
Invitation to Global Industry Leaders:
IESA
strongly invites and encourages electronics manufacturers, semiconductor
fabless design houses, OSAT/ATMP providers, and ecosystem startups to
aggressively take advantage of the progressive incentives, electricity duty
exemptions, stamp duty concessions, skilling incentives and ease of doing
business unveiled by the Rajasthan Government.
As
the apex industry body, IESA reaffirms its ironclad commitment to step up its
efforts, work hand-in-hand with state authorities and RIICO, and mobilize its
member network to drive strategic investments and supercharge the growth of the
ESDM sector in Rajasthan and across Bharat.
