Riding India’s semiconductor push, Delta Electronics plans to nearly double its manufacturing footprint, betting on automation-led growth across chips, electronics and automotive.
Delta Electronics is preparing to expand its manufacturing presence in India to support the country’s fast-growing semiconductor and electronics ecosystem. The company, according to a report by The Hindu Business Line, highlighted that this move aligns with India’s ‘Make in India’ strategy and rising investments under the Indian Semiconductor Mission (ISM).
Sanjeev Srivastava, Business Head for Industrial Automation at Delta Electronics India, said the company plans to almost double its factory footprint. He noted that India has reached a decisive stage in manufacturing, particularly in semiconductors and electronics. Expanding local capacity, he added, is a logical step to support this growth.
The expansion comes as India pushes for greater self-reliance in chipmaking through ISM 1.0 and ISM 2.0. Srivastava said Delta has already begun manufacturing several products at its Indian facilities. Further capacity additions are planned as demand increases across the sector.
Semiconductors have become a central focus for the industry over the past two years, he said. Activity is picking up across the value chain. This includes both front-end fabrication and back-end operations such as assembly, testing and packaging.
Early investments have strengthened confidence in India’s semiconductor ambitions. Srivastava pointed to projects announced by companies such as Micron and the Tata Group. He said these moves signal the country’s long-term potential as a manufacturing hub.
According to Srivastava, the ISM is gaining acceptance across the industry. Companies are aligning operations to meet emerging standards. He said this has created visible momentum across the ecosystem.
Delta’s industrial automation business is positioning itself to serve multiple sectors. These include semiconductors, electronics manufacturing and automotive. Other areas, such as machine tools and plastics, are also in focus.
Srivastava said Delta offers a broad range of shop-floor components and systems. The company also enables data flow from machines to software platforms. This allows factory managers to track performance and improve efficiency.
He added that Delta’s solutions provide end-to-end visibility. Management teams can monitor shop-floor operations in real time. As India scales its semiconductor ambitions, automation and digital readiness will be critical. Delta’s expansion plans, he said, are designed to support that transition.
