Sarma sa at TATA-gruppen hadde innledende samtaler med delstatsregjeringen om halvledersammenstillingen og pakkeanlegget, og fornøyd med diskusjonene her, har de henvendt seg til senteret.
TATA Group planlegger å sette opp et halvlederbehandlingsanlegg i Assam til en investering på rundt 40,000 XNUMX crore pund, sa sjefsminister Himanta Biswa Sarma fredag.
Han henvendte seg til en funksjon i Guwahati og sa at den har henvendt seg til senteret for det siste nikk etter diskusjoner med delstatsregjeringen, og klarsignal forventes snart.
“There is a very good news for us. TATA Electronics Ltd has submitted an application for setting up an electronic centre at Jagiroad,” Sarma said. “They have submitted a proposal to the Government of India with an outlay of about Rs 40,000 crore,” he added.
Jagiroad, in Morigaon district, is about 55 km from the state’s largest city Guwahati. Sarma said the TATA Group held initial talks with the state government about the semiconductor assembly and packaging plant, and satisfied with the discussions here, they have approached the Centre.
“If all goes well, we will see a major investment in the state which will create a positive environment for industrialisation. We are in touch with the Centre and hope that the final approval will be given in a month or two,” he said.
Sjefsministeren sa at konglomeratet også har henvendt seg til delstatsregjeringen for å trene opp 1,000 personer for ansettelse i enheten.
“We used to always ask why the electronics and IT industry did not come to our state. Now it is changing,” Sarma said. In a post on X, he thanked PM Narendra Modi “for his continuous guidance in transforming our State”.
Statens kabinett hadde i august godkjent Assam Semiconductor Manufacturing and Electronic Production Policy.
