Business need investments in chips, says N Chandrasekaran

NEW DELHI: Tata Sons chairman N Chandrasekaran Tuesday said investments in semiconductors and electronics are important for India, businesses and the future, although they may not generate the numbers in two or three years. At a time when the salt-to-software conglomerate’s investments in some of these businesses have come under scrutiny, Chandra compared the foray into chips and electronics with the group’s bet on steel and hydel power in the early 1900s.
