India Advances AI Chip Development and Supports Domestic Smartphone Industry Amid Market ShiftsPreviousNext

India is advancing its technology sector with initiatives like developing a sovereign AI chip through C-Dac to reduce reliance on foreign suppliers amid US export restrictions. Concurrently, the government has extended production-linked incentives to boost domestic cellphone manufacturing, supporting job creation and exports despite ongoing challenges in competitiveness. Rising component costs have also shifted the smartphone market, enabling emerging Indian brands to target budget segments as established players focus on premium devices.
