Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi will visit Gujarat on 28 February 2026. At around 3:45 PM, Prime
Minister will inaugurate the Semiconductor Assembly, Test and Packaging (ATMP) facility of Micron
Semiconductor Technology India Private Limited in Sanand. He will also address the gathering on the
occasion.
The inauguration marks a significant milestone in India’s semiconductor manufacturing journey, with the
commencement of commercial production and shipment of the first made-in-India semiconductor memory
modules from the Sanand ATMP facility. This development represents a major step forward in
strengthening India’s position in the global semiconductor value chain.
The project, which had its ground-breaking ceremony in September 2023, was the first proposal approved
under the India Semiconductor Mission (ISM). With a total outlay of more than ₹22,500 crore,
construction commenced soon after approval, reflecting the Government’s commitment to fast-tracking
strategic semiconductor investments in the country.
The Sanand facility, once fully ramped up, will feature approximately 500,000 square feet of cleanroom
space, making it one of the world’s largest raised-floor cleanrooms. The facility is designed to serve
customers worldwide and address the growing global demand for memory and storage solutions, driven by
rapid advancements in Artificial Intelligence and high-performance computing.
The Sanand ATMP facility will convert advanced Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM) and
NAND semiconductor wafers from Micron’s global manufacturing network into finished memory and
storage products, catering to customers across global markets.The establishment and operationalisation of this facility underscores India’s emergence as a trusted and
competitive destination for semiconductor manufacturing and aligns with Prime Minister’s vision of
building a resilient and self-reliant technology ecosystem in the country.
