Tata Chief N Chandrasekaran to Lead
Semiconductor Push
N Chandrasekaran, chairman of Tata Sons, is set to take on
the additional role of chairman at Tata Electronics which
has invested around USD 14 billion to enter the
semiconductor industry. Industry insiders say
Chandrasekaran's new role highlights the semiconductor
business's strategic importance for the Tata conglomerate.
He was influential in recruiting former Intel and Applied
Materials executives to lead Tata Electronics this year.
With these leadership hires and over 50 other semiconductor
experts brought on board, Tata Electronics is positioning
itself at the forefront of India's electronics manufacturing
sector. Tata Electronics now has the management muscle to
scale up and may surpass growth expectations," said an
executive close to the company. "Chandrasekaran's bold
approach aligns with the 'One Tata' vision.

Backed IT Hardware Companies To Start Production of
Computers, Servers In FY2024
A senior government official from the Ministry of
Electronics and IT (MeitY) has announced that the majority
of personal computer and server makers approved under the IT
hardware production-linked incentive (PLI) scheme are
expected to commence production this year. Speaking on the
sidelines of the inauguration of a new high-end computing
server manufacturing unit by Netweb Technologies, MeitY
Secretary S Krishnan revealed that around 17 out of the 27
companies granted approval under the PLI scheme will start
production in 2024. About 17 out of 27 PLI companies will
start production this year. Around 6-7 of them started
production last year, and two have plans to start production
next year. The government had approved the applications of
27 companies, including major players like Dell, HP, Foxconn,
Lenovo, and Netweb Technologies, under the new PLI scheme
for IT hardware in November 2023.

HP India In Talks With VVDN & Dixon To
Strengthen Domestic Laptop Assembly
In a significant move to strengthen domestic laptop assembly
operations, HP India, the Indian subsidiary of the renowned
American computer manufacturer, is engaged in discussions
with local firms VVDN Technologies and Dixon Technologies.
This development comes as HP India stands among the 27
eligible companies for the Indian government's Production
Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme 2.0 for IT hardware, which has
allocated a substantial Rs. 17,000 crore for incentives.
While HP India already operates its own assembly plant and
has an existing partnership with the US-based Flex for
laptop assembly, the company is exploring assembly-only
agreements with Dixon and VVDN. Both domestic firms are
eligible for the production-linked incentives under the PLI
scheme. The proposed arrangement would entail HP India
supplying all necessary components for manufacturing, known
as job work, while Dixon and VVDN would handle the assembly
process.

Apple's Biggest iPhone
Assembler Posts 72% Profit Surge Even As Revenue
Takes Hit From Weaker Consumer Electronics
Demand
Taiwan's Hon Hai Precision operating as Foxconn Technology
Group has reported a significant increase in its
first-quarter net profit, despite a decline in revenue
attributed to weakened consumer electronics demand. The
Taiwan-based contract manufacturer, known for assembling
Apple Inc. iPhones, announced on Tuesday that its net profit
for the first quarter rose by 72% from the previous year,
reaching NT$22.01 billion (US$679 million), reported The
Wall Street Journal. This increase, however, fell short of
the NT$28.76 billion estimated by analysts in a FactSet
poll. The surge in profit was attributed to a low base last
year when Foxconn faced a NT$17.3 billion write-down linked
to its 34% stake in Japanese electronics maker Sharp.
Despite the profit surge, first-quarter revenue dropped by
9% to NT$1.324 trillion due to reduced consumer electronics
demand.

Amber Enterprises' valuation could be re-rated, as the

cooling solutions for the railways could allay investor
concerns about moderating revenue potential from contract
manufacturing of air-conditioners. The company is the India
market leader in contract manufacturing of ACs, a business
where it is facing challenges due to brands increasingly
turning to in-house manufacturing of room ACs. The company
is targeting AC contracting operations as well as new
business from the electronics and railway segments to have

of the new business would be superior to the AC contracting

Telecom
Your phone bill could rise
by up to 25% post-election
Mobile phone users could see about 25% increase in their
bills after the general election as telecom companies
prepare for the fourth round of tariff hikes in recent
years, a move which would give a boost to their average
revenue per user (ARPU). The report said while the quantum
of hike may appear large, it should be manageable for both
urban and rural users, especially as data usage is sticky.
For urban households, subscribers spending on telecom would
go up from 3.2% of total expenditure to 3.6%, it said, while
for rural subscribers spending would increase from 5.2% to
5.9%. The roughly 25% increase in headline rates would

Consumers bend the road:
No straight drive from ICE to electric
The journey from the internal combustion engine (ICE)
vehicles to electric vehicles (EVs) ones is not as straight
as it appeared a few years ago. Consumers do want an
alternative to vehicles powered by dirty fuel but they are
not lapping up EVs as yet. They are preferring hybrids or
CNG vehicles. This has reflected in plans of car
manufacturers not just in India but in the West too. India's
biggest car maker, Maruti Suzuki India, expects its CNG car
sales to rise over 30 per cent to around 6 lakh units this
fiscal. "So CNG, this year, we did about 4,50,000 (units) in
passenger vehicles. We are hoping to do something like
6,00,000 vehicles in FY24-25," Maruti Suzuki India Executive
Director Corporate Affairs Rahul Bharti said in an analyst
call, PTI reported. The component shortage of CNG vehicles
has been gradually normalizing, which has prompted the
company to guide for CNG sales volume. The CNG growth rate
is expected to be nearly four times the overall volume.
