Why India imports it. ST, NXP, Microchip, Renesas dominate; India has design but no MCU fab.
Why it matters. MCUs are in every appliance, vehicle, IoT node; embedded intelligence localisation matters.
Can India localise it? Partial - design + OSAT achievable in 3-5 years.
Where it comes from. USA (45%), Germany (25%), Japan (15%).
