To boost the government’s Make in India initiative, homegrown contract manufacturer Optiemus Electronics has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Taiwan-headquartered Wistron Corporation’s Indian subsidiary Wistron Infocomm Manufacturing (India) to manufacture mobile devices, IT hardware and electric vehicles. The companies were among the first to be approved under the government’s Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme for mobile and electronics manufacturing in India. The strategic alliance will offer a unique proposition in Indian Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS) market backed by joint product development, engineering capabilities, software and firmware development besides giving a boost to employment generation in the country. The alliance will also work towards creating a joint hub in India for Design Solutions Product Development apart from bringing smart manufacturing to India. Apart from manufacturing mobile phones, the alliance will also work towards design and manufacturing of tablets, laptops, hearables/wearables, telecom products, IoT/industrial IoT, smart meters/devices and automotive-EV products. The alliance will as well focus on the expansion of design ecosystem in India. Currently, Optiemus has PLI for both mobile phone manufacturing and IT hardware manufacturing and plans to significantly increase its investment to Rs 1,350 crore in the next 3 to 5 years. Optiemus Electronics targets to achieve revenue of approximately Rs 38,000 crore in multiple product segments while ramping up manpower in its plants significantly to reach a figure of around 11,000 employees in the next 3 to 5 years. OEL currently has two manufacturing plants in Noida, Uttar Pradesh with a total combined manufacturing capacity of about 2 million devices per month. Optiemus and Wistron alliance will be able to offer Taiwanese technology at optimized cost and PLI sharing, all under one roof. Through this partnership, both the companies will jointly explore the possibilities of catering to both domestic and overseas customers through OEL’s manufacturing facilities. A.
