PM Modi lays foundation stone for HCL-Foxconn semiconductor plant in Uttar Pradesh
Prime Minister Narendra Modi laid the foundation for a new HCL-Foxconn semiconductor packaging and test facility in Uttar Pradesh, India, on February 21, 2026. The plant represents a significant capacity expansion in the outsourced semiconductor assembly and test (OSAT) sector, part of India's push to build a domestic chip ecosystem.
This long-term capacity addition could eventually ease supply constraints for mature-node packaging, but its impact on near-term pricing is uncertain and dependent on the ramp-up timeline and final capacity.
