Tata Projects reported that Micron Technology's fully operational semiconductor assembly and testing service center in Sanand will complete its construction by December 2025. The $2.75 billion ATMP facility is India's first semiconductor production venture, where work completion is 60% of its total project scope.
"An ATMP facility is essentially a backend fab facility where testing, packaging, and marking of semiconductors are carried out. This is perhaps the largest backend semiconductor fab unit in the world. So far, 60 percent of work has been completed on Phase-1 with the help of a total workforce of 3,500," said Amit Agrawal, Project Director, Tata Projects.
Spread across 50 acres in the Sanand industrial area, construction began in July 2022 under a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed between the Gujarat government and Micron in June 2023. The facility will generate approximately 5,000 direct and 15,000 indirect jobs upon becoming operational.
"We will hand over this facility to Micron by December 2025 after finishing civil work, mechanical, electrical and plumbing work along with engineering-related tasks as per the designs given by Micron. The final call to commence the plant will be taken by Micron," Agrawal added.
India maintains a leading position in the worldwide semiconductor supply chain built by this project while demonstrating advanced industrial capability and domestic technology independence. The Sanand facility positions India to support worldwide semiconductor demand while advancing national ambitions to lead advanced manufacturing facilities.
