The company relayed this information through a statement to the stock exchange, indicating the submission of the application to the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology and the quest for subsidies for the project.
In the official filing, CG Power and Industrial Solutions stated, "We wish to inform you that the Company has today filed an application with the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY), Government of India seeking approval to set up an Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly and Test (OSAT) facility and the grant of subsidy for the said project under the modified scheme for setting up compound semiconductors/silicon photonics/sensors fab/discrete semiconductors fab and semiconductor assembly, testing, marking and packaging (ATMP) facilities in India."

Some have already declared their capital commitments. However, experts have raised concerns that these units may focus more on assembly than actual semiconductor manufacturing in India, potentially undermining the objectives of the mission.
