Taiwan Seeks Larger Role in India’s Tech Landscape

Taiwan is pushing to expand its presence in India’s technology sector, driven by surging demand for electronics and semiconductor products in the United States. According to a leading trade body chief, Taiwanese companies are actively exploring collaborations and investments in India to strengthen supply chains and diversify manufacturing bases.

India Emerges as Strategic Partner

With India positioning itself as a global hub for electronics and semiconductor manufacturing, Taiwan sees the South Asian nation as a strategic partner. Initiatives like the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme and growing infrastructure support have made India an attractive destination for Taiwanese firms seeking to reduce dependency on China.

U.S. Demand Fueling Expansion

Rising U.S. demand for high-end chips, consumer electronics, and advanced hardware is one of the biggest catalysts for Taiwan’s push into India. As the U.S. tightens technology cooperation with allies, Taiwan is looking to leverage India’s cost efficiency, talent pool, and expanding domestic market to meet global requirements.

Focus on Semiconductors and Electronics

Taiwanese companies are particularly eyeing India’s semiconductor ecosystem, which is receiving massive government support. Alongside chipmaking, sectors such as consumer electronics, telecom equipment, and green technologies are expected to witness increased Taiwan-India cooperation.

Strengthening Bilateral Trade Relations

Industry leaders stress that Taiwan’s growing role in India will not only strengthen bilateral trade but also help create resilient supply chains for global markets. The partnership is being viewed as a win-win, combining Taiwan’s technological leadership with India’s scale and workforce.
