LUCKNOW, July 22: Under the leadership of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, Uttar Pradesh has achieved an unprecedented milestone in the electronics and mobile manufacturing sector, taking a significant step toward becoming the country's largest electronics manufacturing hub. Once known only in a limited capacity for its electronics industry, Uttar Pradesh is now producing nearly 65 percent of all mobile phones manufactured in the country.
Not only this, but the state's share in electronics component manufacturing has also reached nearly 55 percent. This achievement has established Uttar Pradesh as the country's largest high-tech manufacturing hub.
The industrial ecosystem developed around Noida and Greater Noida has played the most significant role in this transformation. Global brands such as Samsung, Oppo, Vivo, and LG are manufacturing mobile phones here on a large scale.
Alongside them, leading Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and Original Design Manufacturers (ODMs) such as Dixon Technologies, Optiemus, Padget Electronics, Zeton (Zetwerk), and Bhagwati Products (Micromax) are also operating in the state. As a result, Uttar Pradesh is not only meeting India's domestic requirements but is also establishing a strong presence in the global electronics supply chain.
Along with mobile manufacturing, the state has also become the country's largest center for electronics component manufacturing. Companies such as Samkwang, Holitech, KHY, Khvatec, Minda Corporation, JWorld, Shinsung C&T, Sunwoda, and Dreamtech are manufacturing PCBAs, displays, capacitors, and other critical components.
At the same time, companies such as Haier and Panasonic are continuously expanding their investments in consumer electronics manufacturing. This has made Uttar Pradesh's industrial base significantly stronger than before.
The Yogi government's policies promoting industry and investment are considered key drivers behind this success. The effective implementation of the Electronics Manufacturing Policy-2017, the amendments introduced in 2020 and 2022, and the Uttar Pradesh Electronics Component Manufacturing Policy-2025 have attracted investments of more than Rs 28,000 crore from over 75 companies in the state.
Furthermore, Uttar Pradesh has made a major leap in semiconductor manufacturing by securing approved investments worth Rs 32,146 crore. |
