India's Semiconductor Market to Surpass $100 Billion by 2030

India's Semiconductor Market to Surpass $100 Billion by 2030- Grapevine

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

Hi Grapeviners,
I would like to hear some suggestions on what should I do next.
I am an non-IT engineering graduate, got into an MNC (witch) for 3.5LPA, was onboarded for a support role after clearing all mandatory  trainings and tests, where majority of my work revolves around filling Excel sheets and scheduling support calls.
After a lots of struggle I was relieved from that project(after 1year 5 months). After that I joined a python automation script development team

My current python team is going very well, i get to dirty my hands with code in python.
It's been 6months in python team. Over all 2years spend in same company, when I try to switch for other company, I feel like I'm no where close to their requirements, my only skill is python application automation using respective modules, with months of experience.

Most of the roles I see are having different different combinations of tools and technologies. 

I also know medium level DSA.

Please suggest what should I do so that I can switch companies.

What should I do after being in support role?

Curious to learn about what sectors will see more action in the run up to 2030 where we are slated to become a $5trn economy and lots of companies have done Capex investments across sectors. What specific sectors, companies (listed or startups ) will benefit. Collective logic and name taking might help us all

Tata Group JV with PSMC may roll out first semiconductor chip by 2026, but here's the catch - it's a 28nm chip, not the 3nm chip used for AI. 

In comparison, Apple had announced in 2023 that it will buy every 3nm chip that TSMC can make for the next-gen iPhones.

I was casually scrolling across Amazon looking for a smartwatch for a family member,  when I came across this tag called Country of Origin on the product description details section. To my surprise most of the so-called Indian brands like Noise and Boat have Country of Origin specified as surprise surprise *China*.

I felt kinda disgusting tbh. Then I scrolled over the list of products that I have purchased over Amazon ranging from mouse pads to Milton water bottles and almost all of them had this country of origin from China, except for the Bhagwat Purana copy(Thank God).

I think we Indians are by sheer ignorance depleting India's forex reserves and demoting efforts by our Entrepreneur to manufacture in India. We may end up getting cheap products but it costs us loss in GDP and job opportunities in India. I guess we could take a lesson out of the Japanese book where Japanese people don't buy non-Japanese products. It's a conscious decision.

Do Indians care about the Country of Origin tag while purchasing products?

- The Adani Group, led by billionaire Gautam Adani, plans to build a $10 billion semiconductor plant near Mumbai with Israel's Tower Semiconductor Ltd.
- The facility, located in Taloja, will be constructed over three to five years and aims to produce 40,000 wafers initially, scaling up to 80,000.
- This move aligns with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision to make India a tech superpower and reduce reliance on imports.
- The chips produced will be used in drones, cars, smartphones, and other mobility solutions.
- Adani joins Tata Group in bolstering India's semiconductor industry, which has seen significant investments and government support.

- 42% of this will be Grocery, followed by Fashion at 24%
- 65% of D2C brand sales expected to be driven by Marketplaces (as they are today) 
- Today, 92% of retail is offline. By 2027, 89% of retail will be still offline (fair)

VC funding based on revenue multiples and profit (😂😂😂) multiples is soon going to be obsolete. 

Common sense says company's valuation should be summation of yearly profits it can generate till the company exists... 

So if reliance has profit of 8 billion $ , market estimates that it's valuation should be around 25x multiple of its profit that is to say that if reliance keeps on generating same amount of profit for year on year, it will not exist after 25 years.

Now tell me, what shelf live does these VC funded startup have?

I honestly don't see all these tom dick and Harry mobile based and web based startups existing by end of this decade thanks to AI revolution.

People are still oblivion to what AI will do to white collar jobs 



Just out of curiosity, is there any single VC funded Indian startup in last 10-15 years which is immensely profitable ? 

Or for that matter any global giants like Amazon, Uber, Airbnb etc. which has turned profitable in Indian territory?

Welcome to Data Scientists's Private Community

India represents an untapped potential for greater Internet penetration+advancements in Speed compared to other advanced economies. 

This should ideally unlock greater data generation per capita. This will ideally allow us to map geo-specific patterns across e-commerce/social-networks/OTT/Finance/Healthcare/EdTech etc. 

Data as a moat may just be real. Think of how you can switch to:
(in this order of preference)

Data Engineering > ML/AI/Data Science > Analytics

Having YOE under your belt when the wave picks up will take you further than anyone else.

Completed 3 years at Cisco this month as a Hardware Engineer, joined straight out of a tier-2 college in 2021.

Over my 3 years, what I've learnt is that Cisco is just riding on the monopoly it has in the networking space. There's basically no innovation when it comes to Router hardware, and we basically reuse existing designs, packaging them as "newer and better" products. No risk, no Ishq 🙁

There's absolutely zero investment in R&D, and any new feature that gets added to the products only comes in after one of the competitors launches them, keeping Cisco behind in the game.

If Cisco keeps going like this, I'm sure the likes of Arista and Juniper will over us in the next couple of years, even with the new "Silicon One" that Cisco's promoting. 

PS: I can only speak from a Hardware PoV, and I'm not quite updated with what's going on with Cisco's SW offerings.

No future for Cisco

Good work like R&D is rarely in Indian centres

Nvidia is going to be 2nd most valued firm on earth.
