Semiconductors — India

The ISM scheme + Micron Sanand + Tata Semi fabs — early innings.

The thesis

India's semiconductor story is 3-5 years from shipping first real fabs (Micron Sanand OSAT + Tata Semi, Murasudan fabs). Listed exposure is indirect: ATMP/OSAT plays like Kaynes Technology, semiconductor-equipment via Syrma SGS, and substrate/component cos. It's early; valuations reflect long-term optionality, not cash flows.

Tailwinds

  • India Semiconductor Mission (ISM) — $10bn+ incentives approved
  • Micron Sanand + Tata Semi fabs breaking ground; first chips 2026-27
  • Design ecosystem — Qualcomm, Intel, AMD India design centres expanding
  • Geopolitical supply-chain-diversification tailwind (out of Taiwan/China)

Risks

  • Capex-heavy, negative-FCF names; sensitive to interest rates
  • Execution risk — India has zero operational commercial fabs today
  • Global semi cyclicality (e.g. 2022-23 memory downturn)
  • Stretched valuations — most names 60-100× P/E on expected-earnings
