Indian semiconductor market is estimated to reach around $300 bn by 2026

Indian semiconductor market is estimated to reach around $300 bn by 2026

According to recent research, the ‘Make in India’ and production-linked incentive (PLI) programmes will encourage local sourcing of semiconductor components in the ensuing years, bringing India’s semiconductor component market’s total revenues up to $300 billion by 2026.

Currently, the IT, industrial, mobile and wearables categories together account for around 80% of the country’s semiconductor revenues in 2021.

According to the analysis by the India Electronics & Semiconductor Association (IESA) and Counterpoint Research, future regulatory changes and the development of a semiconductor ecosystem will lessen dependency on imports.

“Before the end of this decade, there will be nothing that will not be touched by electronics and the ubiquitous ‘chip’. Be it fighting carbon emissions, renewable energy, food safety, or healthcare, the semiconductor chip will be all-pervasive,” said Krishna Moorthy, CEO and President, of IESA.

Under its PLI programme, the Indian government recently proposed a separate expenditure of Rs 76,000 crore (about $10 billion) towards the growth of an electronics ecosystem for semiconductor and display manufacturing.

Maharashtra has won a staggering Rs 2.06 lakh crore investment from Vedanta Group-Foxconn cooperation in the rising semiconductor chips and display fabrications sector in Pune, besting at least five other states in the process.

“The gradual shift from feature phones to smartphones has been generating increased proportions of advanced logic processors, memory, integrated controllers, sensors and other components. This will continue to drive the value of the semiconductor content in smartphones, aided by the rise of wearables such as smartwatches and TWS,” explained Tarun Pathak, Research Director at Counterpoint Research.

“However, the telecom sector with the advent of 5G and fibre network rollout will be a key catalyst in boosting the semiconductor components consumption,” Shah said.

Neil Shah, vice president at Counterpoint, predicts that various industries will contribute to the upcoming significant rise in semiconductor components. In addition to the high-tech, semiconductor-intensive 5G and FTTH network infrastructure equipment, which will account for more than 14% of all semiconductor consumption in 2026, “but also from the highly capable AI-driven 5G endpoints, from smartphones, tablets, PCs, connected cars, industrial robotics to private networks,” he mentioned, will also contribute to this consumption.

India’s end equipment market had revenues of $119 billion in 2021. From 2021 to 2026, a CAGR of 19% is anticipated for growth. According to the report, from component, sourcing to design manufacture, India’s electronic system design and manufacturing (ESDM) industry would significantly impact the overall growth of the nation.

Oscar’s move to Flamengo collapses at final stage

Former Chelsea midfielder Oscar was expected to join Flamengo this summer. But, Shanghai SIPG pulled out of the deal at the last minute, and the player will now be staying in China for the remainder of the season. 

The deal was in the final stages, and the player had also pictured himself in a Flamengo shirt. But, the documents were not signed by the club, and now, the deal is completely off for the time being. 

Oscar not joining Flamengo as deal collapses at last stages 

The midfielder sent out a tweet to explain the situation: 

‘I appreciate the interest of Flamengo and the fans, but it was not possible to do so at that moment. 

‘I wish the club the best of luck and all the friends I have there for the remainder of this season. Thank you all!’ 

Oscar made the move to China in 2017 from Chelsea, for an eye-catching fee worth £54 million. At the time, Chelsea were close to winning the Premier League and it was seen as a purely financial move. Five years later, the player was set to return to Brazil, but due to differences between the two clubs, things haven’t gone according to plan. 

A number of European clubs were tracking him prior to his move to Asia, and at 30, it is likely that he will soon earn a move away.

Report: Apple Employee claims the Management Threatened her over a TikTok Video

Report: Apple Employee claims the Management Threatened her over a TikTok Video

An Apple employee claims that her employer, where she has worked for more than six years, has threatened to terminate her because of a popular TikTok video she made that offers simple, commonsense advice on what to do if your iPhone is stolen.

On TikTok, the employee, Paris Campbell, has about 500,000 followers and more than 17.7 million likes as of this writing. Campbell never revealed to the public that she worked for Apple before a video last week; instead, she frequently published stand-up comedy performances and reaction videos to amusing and eccentric content uploaded to the app.

Following the theft of their iPhone and subsequent messages from the perpetrators threatening to sell their personal information on the black market, Campbell responded to another user’s TikTok a week ago. With the help of Find My, the victim discovered the whereabouts of their iPhone in China.

The crooks specifically urged the victim in their emails to do so to get around Activation Lock by removing the stolen iPhone from their Apple ID account. It is strongly advised against doing so because doing so would make the device useful and would only benefit crooks.

“I can’t tell you how exactly I know this information, but I can tell you for the last six years I’ve been a certified hardware engineer for a certain company that likes to talk a lot about fruit,” Campbell said in the opening of her video response to the concerned victim. Campbell continues by emphasizing the need to avoid detaching the iPhone from the Apple ID and by describing Activation Lock.

As a reminder, Activation Lock forces users to enter their Apple ID password to unlock their iPhone, iPad, Mac, or Apple Watch after it has been deleted if it is still linked to an account.

The iPhone in this instance is completely worthless without the Apple ID password or the password used to unlock the device previously. In her video, Campbell only offers the victim some helpful advice and reassurance that, despite the criminals’ claims to the contrary, they do not possess sensitive information. Campbell advises the victim to disregard the messages as he wraps up the video. At the time of writing, the video had received over 7.4 million views.

Only a few days after publishing that video, Campbell published a second video outlining the events. She said that she received a call from her manager informing her that she had violated Apple policy by disclosing her employment status in public. However, Apple’s policy merely mandates that employees uphold Apple’s reputation and image in their online presence and does not prohibit them from openly identifying themselves as Apple employees.

Credit: MacRumors

Numerous Apple engineers openly identify as company employees on Twitter. They frequently engage with the public and tweet about how excited they are about the work they have been doing since the announcement.

Campbell agrees with her management that Apple does not pay her to “make TikTok videos,”  claiming that she only does it for fun in her free time.

“Apple, you didn’t hire me to make TikTok videos, but apparently, I’m good at it. Talking about your products and tech in general and how people can deal with it in their everyday life is kind of the thing that I’m best at,” Campbell said.
