Tata's chip plant to have 450 suppliers, building 363-acre vendor park to house them: Official

Tata's chip plant to have 450 suppliers, building 363-acre vendor park to house them: Official

Tata Electronics, a leading chipmaker, plans to establish a 363-acre vendor park near its new chip manufacturing plant in Dholera, Gujarat. According to a senior company official, the plant is expected to have around 450 suppliers, both domestic and international. The suppliers will require proximity to the chip plant due to its capital-intensive nature and the risk of extended downtimes.

Tata Electronics is investing approximately Rs 91,000 crore in the project. The company is developing the vendor park in collaboration with a Singapore-based developer, which will provide plug-and-play infrastructure, including power, water, utilities, and roads. Tata Electronics CEO Randhir Thakur announced that the company has signed 16 agreements at the SEMICON India conference, with partners from Europe, Japan, Singapore, and India.

The company's Dholera fab and the packaging facility in Assam are on track to meet their scheduled commitments.
