Why India imports it. ASML is the sole EUV vendor; Nikon/Canon supply DUV; India has no lithography tool manufacturing.

Why it matters. Lithography is the gating step for any fab; without ASML access, no advanced chip can be made in India.

Can India localise it? Hard - requires precision optics, mechatronics and EUV source IP, none of which India has.

Where it comes from. Netherlands (70%), Japan (30%).
