iPhone component maker Murata Electronics to lease factory in Chennai, plans full operations by FY26

Murata Electronics (India) Private Limited, a subsidiary of iPhone component maker Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd., has entered into an agreement to lease a factory within an industrial park in India. The handover will take place in February 2025. The Japanese company said in a release that through this venture, Murata will gain experience in factory operations in India and prepare for future manufacturing activities in the country.

The plant will package and ship multilayer ceramic capacitors. The facility at OneHub Chennai Industrial Park near Mamallapuram is aiming for full-scale operation in FY2026, the release said.

Tamil Nadu’s Industries Minister TRB Rajaa said in a social media post, “After big ones like Corning and Jabil, Japanese electronics giant Murata Manufacturing has entered Tamil Nadu with a factory at OneHub Chennai Industrial Park to manufacture multilayer ceramic capacitors.”  “We have been speaking to Murata for about a year now, and after multiple meetings, we are immensely happy to see them commence production in Tamil Nadu.

To those who say “only assembly” is happening in India - watch how the supply chain shift is happening. India will soon become a global hotspot for advanced electronics manufacturing, and Tamil Nadu will be the engine that drives that transformation, he said.
