Tata Electronics, Bosch ink pact for semiconductor, auto tech projects

Tata Electronics has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with German tech giant Robert Bosch GmbH to work together in key areas of the electronics and semiconductor sectors. The memorandum of understanding (MoU) outlines plans for collaboration in chip packaging and manufacturing, news agency PTI reported.
The two companies will focus their efforts at Tata Electronics' upcoming assembly and test facility in Assam, as well as its semiconductor foundry in Gujarat.
Randhir Thakur, CEO of Tata Electronics, said the partnership aligns with the company's broader goal of supporting India's semiconductor ecosystem. 'This partnership is well-aligned with our commitment to help create a holistic semiconductor and electronics ecosystem in India, with offerings that resonate with customers around the world," he said.
In addition to semiconductor manufacturing, the collaboration will explore local projects in the area of vehicle electronics. Both companies aim to expand their work in electronic manufacturing services for the automotive sector.
'Bosch recognises the increasing demand for advanced automotive electronics and their critical role in shaping the future of mobility. To address the growing needs and foster supply chain resilience, Bosch is pleased to foster partnership with Tata Electronics,' said Dirk Kress, executive vice-president of semiconductor operations at Robert Bosch GmbH.
The partnership is seen as a major step forward for India's ambitions in electronics and semiconductor manufacturing. It also highlights the increasing interest of global technology companies in India's growing manufacturing potential.
Tata Electronics, BEL join hands to develop semiconductor solutions
In June, Tata Electronics signed a MoU with Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL) to jointly work on electronics and semiconductor solutions.
BEL, a Navratna PSU under the Ministry of Defence, will partner with Tata Electronics to build end-to-end semiconductor and electronics systems tailored to India's needs. The collaboration will cover areas such as chip design, outsourced semiconductor assembly and test (OSAT), and semiconductor fabrication, with Tata Electronics supporting BEL's existing and future product lines.
Both companies will focus on developing microcontrollers (MCUs), systems-on-chip (SoCs), monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs), and other processors crucial to the electronics ecosystem.
Tata Electronics expands display chip plans in Gujarat
In March, Tata Electronics also announced a new display chip fabrication facility in Dholera, Gujarat. The plant will be set up in partnership with Taiwan's Powerchip Semiconductor Manufacturing Corporation (PSMC) and Himax Technologies, PTI had reported.
Display chips manufactured at the upcoming facility will be used in products such as TVs, smartphones, LEDs, OLEDs, and camera sensors.
While Vedanta Group had also proposed a display fab in Gujarat, its plan has yet to receive government approval. Tata's entry positions it across all major semiconductor manufacturing segments.

Audi TT likely to come back in electric avatar, concept to debut in September 2025

The Audi TT went out of production in 2023. Considered as one of the most popular sports cars, the Audi TT seems to be gearing up for a comeback, but this time in an all-electric guise. Audi CEO Gernot Döllner has revealed that the German luxury car manufacturer is readying a concept model for debut in September this year. Interestingly, the Volkswagen AG-owned car manufacturer is testing a prototype that has been spotted wearing camouflage. The test mule spotted was based on the upcoming Porsche 718 EV. Also Read : Upcoming cars in India German publication Bild has reported that the upcoming Audi concept model that is expected to preview the electric version of the TT will be christened as TT Moment 2.0. Audi CEO has said that this electric concept car will debut this fall and will be unveiled during the Munich Motor Show. The report claims that the Audi TT Moment 2.0 will be larger than the TT that has been discontinued. The report also claims that it would come as a shrunk-down iteration of the Audi A5 Coupe/Convertible. In that case, it would be positioned between a TT and R8 when it enters production. The report stated that the production version of the concept model would enter manufacturing in the next two years. The report further stated that the TT successor could come considerably sportier and be offered with an available dual motor setup, which means each motor will be powering one axle and sending power to all four wheels. Audi has not revealed any details about the electric sports car yet. However, with the Porsche 718 Electric's launch pushed back to 2027 due to battery issues, the Audi model too would come around that time only. We can expect that more details about the Audi TT electric sports car to be revealed in the coming months, before the Munich Motor Show.
