Bengaluru: There are times when the computer means HCL, Wipro, Zenith.
TV means BPL, Onida, Weston, Dyantora, Bellek.
On cellphones, while Indian brands such as Micromax, Carbonn and lava are not dominant, they have a substantial presence.
Many of these brands don’t exist anymore.
If they do it, buy it a little.
“We are a Chinese colony,” said Chowdhry, Co-Founder & former Chairman of HCL, a man who called the father of Indian hardware.
Chinese phenomenal progress in electronic manufacturing, and Taiwan and South Korea in semiconductors, and there is no serious effort by India to match it causing Indian brands destroyed by those from these countries.
Incentive schemes of 76,000 crore rs for semiconductors announced by the government on Wednesday – on incentives related to previous production for electronics – has raised hope in the field of Indian and semiconductors.
“This is what I have been waiting since 2009.
We can now re-create Indian electronics with the Indian brand,” Chowdhry said.
Body Industry Body Nasscom said, for the next six years, “this program will form a new era foundation in electronic manufacturing and vital pillars of the government’s vision of Atmanirbhar Bharat (Mandiri)”.
Dilden vagadia, president for India in the US Semiconductor Major Qualcomm, said the program “has a long-term vision that is holistic and includes several critical aspects other than manufacturing, such as growing a collection of skilled talent techniques in India through chips to startups (C2S) schemes and support for designing Companies and startup through incentive schemes (DLI) related design, which will then encourage local innovation and IPR in Indian ecosystems “.
Semiconductors are the core of electronics.
Global device makers in the US, China and South Korea are usually semiconductor chip sources designed in their own country.
Even when they produce their final product in India, chips are imported.
The domestic industry believes it is very important to design chips and produce them locally to create a vibrant local domestic electronic industry.
It is also an area where the highest highest value occurs.
“The most important part of the policy is incentives for design.
We have world-class designers.
HCL itself has a 5,000-10,000 (chip design) engineer, but they are all now designing for the world,” Chowdhry said.
