The agreement was formalised on September 10 during Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin’s visit to the US, where he met with investors. Stalin confirmed the investment in a post on X, emphasising that this new facility will contribute to the creation of a major electronics manufacturing cluster in Trichy.
