TDK Opens Li-Ion Battery Plant in Haryana

Union Minister of Electronics and Information Technology, Shri Ashwini Vaishnaw, today inaugurated TDK Corporation’s Advanced Technologies Lithium-ion (Li-ion) Battery Manufacturing Plant at Sohna, Haryana. The facility marks a major stride in India’s push towards electronics self-reliance under the Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative.
Calling it a turning point in India’s electronics journey, the Minister highlighted the growing domestic capability across the value chain—from camera modules and PCB assemblies to semiconductors and batteries. He noted that India is now not only designing chips but also moving towards large-scale manufacturing of critical components.
The Sohna facility will manufacture approximately 200 million (Rs 20 crore) battery packs annually, accounting for 40 per cent of India’s current yearly demand of 500 million packs. These batteries will be used in a wide range of consumer electronics, including mobile phones, wearables like smartwatches, and hearables such as earbuds and laptops.
The plant has been set up under the Electronics Manufacturing Cluster (EMC) Scheme of the Government of India. The Minister also acknowledged the role of the Haryana government in supporting the creation of this high-tech manufacturing base. The project is expected to generate direct employment for around 5,000 people, many of whom have already received technical training at TDK’s AT Bawal facility.
Shri Vaishnaw also recalled the recent presentation of India’s first domestically manufactured semiconductor chips to Prime Minister Narendra Modi at SEMICON India 2025, reflecting the country’s advancing capability in foundational electronics manufacturing.
The inauguration of the TDK Sohna plant represents yet another step in India's steady progress towards building a robust, end-to-end electronics manufacturing ecosystem. As production of components such as semiconductors, batteries, PCB assemblies, and camera modules accelerates, India is reducing its import dependence and emerging as a trusted global partner in the electronics supply chain.
