Import Dependency Map
Where does India actually stand? Each ecosystem is scored across its value chain on a 0–5 scale — from total import-dependence to sovereign capability. Open any layer for the rationale and the source. This is the map of what India still buys from abroad, and where the gaps are closing.
The five weakest layers across all ecosystems
- 0Semiconductors · Equipment & Capital Goods
Front-end lithography (especially EUV/advanced DUV), etch and deposition tools remain almost entirely imported; no domestic EUV capability.
UnverifiedAssessed 2026-08-27 - 0AI Infrastructure · Refining & Processing
Advanced semiconductor silicon and packaging that underpins AI accelerators is imported (links to semis corridor). No meaningful domestic refining path for AI-grade compute silicon.
UnverifiedAssessed 2026-08-27 - 0AI Infrastructure · Components & Inputs
Training-class GPUs and high-bandwidth memory are fully imported; server BOM (HBMs, optics) remains foreign. Pack scored GPUs 0.
UnverifiedAssessed 2026-08-27 - 0Enterprise Software · Public Cloud
Hyperscale IaaS/PaaS dominated by global providers; domestic public-cloud share remains marginal for enterprise workloads.
UnverifiedAssessed 2026-08-27 - 0Enterprise Software · Productivity Platforms
Office suites and collaboration still overwhelmingly Microsoft/Google; no scaled sovereign alternative in enterprise deployments.

Lowest capture scores in the scored grid, ties in source order. Each links to its ecosystem; open the layer for the full rationale and source.
How well-sourced are the scores?
Every score carries a verification label; treat single-source scores as provisional.
