据知情人士透露，全球最大的半导体代工厂之一高塔半导体（Tower Semiconductors）已重新提交了一份在印度建立 65nm 和 40nm 芯片制造工厂的提案。该工厂将有助于印度本土半导体产业的发展，同时也将挑战三星和台积电等领先晶圆制造厂的市场地位。
高塔半导体是以色列的一家半导体专业代工厂，总部位于以色列的米格达勒埃梅克。该公司去年 2 月被英特尔以每股 53 美元的现金收购，交易总价值约为 54 亿美元。然而，由于无法及时获得监管机构的批准，双方已同意终止之前达成的收购协议。根据协议，英特尔将向高塔半导体支付了 3.53 亿美元的分手费。
知情人士表示，Next Orbit Ventures 可能会对新提案提出质疑，因为这违反了高塔半导体与其签订的合同条款。不过，另一位消息人士表示，新提案中的新合作伙伴可能是 BC Jindal 集团，这是一家包装和标签产品制造商。
目前，全球半导体产业正面临来自中国的挑战，中国已成为全球最大的半导体市场。与此同时，印度本土半导体产业的发展也在取得进展。知情人士表示，印度政府正在鼓励半导体产业的本土化，以减少对进口的依赖。

Title: Global Largest Semiconductor Fabricator to Build Factory in India, Challenges Samsung and Taiwan’s Market Lead

News Content:
According to sources, Tower Semiconductors, one of the world’s largest semiconductor fabricators, has re-submitted a proposal to build a 65nm and 40nm chip manufacturing factory in India. The factory will help the development of India’s local semiconductor industry and also challenge the market positions of leading chip manufacturers such as Samsung and Taiwan’s TSMC.
Tower Semiconductors is an Israeli-based semiconductor professional fabricator with a headquarters in Migdallerim. The company was acquired by Intel in February last year for $5.4 billion in cash. However, due to failure to obtain regulatory approval in a timely manner, both companies have agreed to terminate the previous acquisition agreement. Under the agreement, Intel will pay a $353 million breakup fee to Tower Semiconductors.
Sources said that Next Orbit Ventures may question the new proposal, as it violates the contract terms with Tower Semiconductors. However, another source said that the new partner in the proposal could be BC Jindal Group, a packaging and labeling product manufacturer.
The global semiconductor industry is currently facing challenges from China, and India is becoming an increasingly important market for semiconductors. Meanwhile, the development of India’s local semiconductor industry is also gaining momentum. Sources said that the Indian government is encouraging domesticization of the semiconductor industry to reduce dependence on imports.
