Dholera, Gujarat:
In a major boost to India’s semiconductor mission,
the Gujarat government is accelerating the development of residential and urban
infrastructure in Dholera SIR to support Tata Group’s upcoming
₹91,000 crore semiconductor fabrication plant.
As per an Economic Times report, around 1,500 serviced apartments are being constructed to house Tata employees, global experts, and supplier networks. Of these, 275 units are already available, with more nearing completion. Additionally, Tata has received a 10-acre land allotment to build 530 apartments by mid-2027.
Infrastructure around the plant is also expanding rapidly. A Global Tent City with food streets, malls, schools, hospitals, and hotels is under development by private players.
Tata Electronics has recruited top global semiconductor professionals, including former Intel and GlobalFoundries executives, to lead the project.
Expected to roll out its first chip by December 2026, the Dholera fab is projected to generate over 20,000 skilled jobs and manufacture 50,000 wafers per month, supporting sectors like automotive, AI, and wireless communications.
