Tata Projects announced a strategic partnership with Micron Technology to undertake the construction of an advanced semiconductor assembly and testing facility in Sanand, Gujarat.

In a press release, Tata Projects emphasised that securing this contract underscores the company's expertise in executing large-scale, sustainable infrastructure projects within the Indian manufacturing sector.

This ambitious project is situated within the Gujarat Industrial Development Corporation area in Chaarodi, Sanand, covering an extensive 93-acre plot of land.
