Dutch chipmaker Nexperia and Tata Electronics announced a partnership today to jointly manufacture and package chips in India, signaling a determination to distance themselves from Nexperia’s Chinese parent company, Wingtech.
According to a Reuters report, the agreement entails the production of various power control chips at Tata’s $11 billion facility in Dholera. The companies also stated that they would collaborate on chip testing and packaging at Tata’s plant in Jagiroad.
The two companies will also collaborate on the development of various technologies, though financial terms were not disclosed.
Randhir Thakur, CEO of Tata Electronics, stated: “Tata Electronics is committed to building a globally competitive, integrated semiconductor manufacturing ecosystem in India, and this comprehensive partnership marks a significant step forward.”
Nexperia is a key manufacturer of foundational chips, with products widely used in the automotive and consumer electronics industries. Its ongoing dispute with Wingtech Technology stems from the Dutch government’s intervention in September 2025; the government stated at the time that the move was intended to prevent the company from relocating operations to China.
Beijing subsequently retaliated by temporarily banning the export of Nexperia chips packaged in Dongguan, resulting in shortages of control chips for multiple automakers.
