印度政府宣布將重新支持在印度建立半導體集成電路制造業(yè)的努力，其中包括建設2座投資總額為50億美元的芯片生產廠。印度政府稱最終的投資和政府資助方案將通過和有過各方的談判來確定。新成立的一個由官員和專家組成的政府委員會（Empowered Committee）將對相關技術和投資方進行評估。
印度此前的努力并沒有吸引到主流的芯片公司到印度去設廠，曾經的兩家較小的投資案（SemIndia 和Hindustan Manufacturing ）并沒有真正從事半導體芯片的制造，而是轉向了光伏領域產品的生產。

LONDON – The Indian government has announced renewed efforts to try and create a manufacturing industry on the sub-continent and is looking for investment of about $5 billion to two fabs.
The exact of government for the would be finalized by way of negotiations interested ies. This is set to happen after a has been produced by the newly-ed Empowered Committee for identifying and investors for Fabrication （Fab） Manufacturing Facilities， the Indian government in a statement.
The Empowered Committee is composed mainly of political appointments but is expected to co-opt industry experts and is due to to government by July 31， 2011.
The committee has been chartered identifying the sources of and potential investors for the establishment of at least two fabs and to recommend the nature and size of government . This could be in the of an equity position， grants and financial .
The Indian government argues in its statement that the lack of domestic making and reliance on s overseas is serving as a bottleneck on the development of complete electronic in India. The argument continues that the creation of fabs would have a “catalytic on the development downstram and upstream products.” The government estimates that the creation of a chipmaking industry within India create 30 million direct and indirect jobs by 2020.
However， India has been here before and failed to attract any chip manufacturers to set up shop. In the middle of the last a of Valley based Indian ex-patriates created Semindia before transing that company into a supplier of communications . Hindustan Manufacturing . selected Technologies AG as a ner to it put down two fabs in Fab City industrial park near Hyderabad in the state of Andhra Pradesh.
Neither SemIndia nor HSMC has put down wafer fabs and the government-ed Fab City has drifted towards a on energy. It was not discussed whether Fab City would still be a preferred location for the creation of chip manufacturing under the renewed .
