Why India imports it. Reasoned estimate: India has limited domestic capacity for silicon-germanium wafers; sector trade patterns indicate continued import reliance.
Why it matters. Strategic dependency within semiconductors value chain; affects downstream manufacturing competitiveness.
Can India localise it? Hard
Where it comes from. Germany (63%), Italy (24%), USA (13%).
