AMD to invest $400 million in India by 2028: Here’s what we know

US chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices said on Friday it will invest around $400 million in India over the next five years and will build its largest design center in the tech hub of Bengaluru. AMD’s announcement was made by its Chief Technology Officer Mark Papermaster at an annual semiconductor conference that started Friday in Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s home state of Gujarat. Other speakers at the flagship event include Foxconn Chairman Young Liu and Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra. Despite being a late entrant, the Modi government has been courting investments into India’s nascent chip sector to establish its credentials as a chipmaking hub. AMD said it will open its new design centre campus in Bengaluru by end of this year and create 3,000 new engineering roles within five years. “Our India teams will continue to play a pivotal role in delivering the high-performance and adaptive solutions that support AMD customers worldwide,” Papermaster said.

Jio maintains lead in 4G download speed, Vi in upload in May: TRAI

Reliance Jio has managed to retain the top spot in terms of 4G download speeds with an average download speed of 20.7Mbps in May according to data provided by the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI). Jio’s 4G speed has marginally increased compared to previous results. While Jio led the charts for download speeds, Vi (Vodafone Idea) managed to record the highest upload speed of 6.3Mbps.

In terms of download speeds, Jio‘s 4G speed was over three times faster than that of Vi and over four times more than Airtel, during May. The data released by TRAI has been pulled from its own MySpeed portal on a real-time basis.

Reliance Jio during the month of May saw a 3 percent increase in its average 4G download speed to 20.7Mbps in May from 20.1Mbps in April. Vi managed to secure the second spot with an average download speed of 6.3Mbps, with Airtel coming in third with an average download speed of 4.7Mbps. Airtel had the lowest average speed of 4.7Mbps, according to the data on June 8.

Vi led the upload speeds charts with an average upload speed of 6.3Mbps, followed closely by Jio with an average upload speed of 4.2Mbps. Airtel came in third with an average upload speed of 3.6Mbps.

Notably, this is the first time TRAI has provided clubbed data for Vi since the merger of Vodafone and Idea back in August 2018. The regulator earlier recorded data for Vodafone and Idea separately on its MySpeed portal.

State-owned telecom operator Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) has already rolled out its 4G services in select areas. However, it did not manage to make the network speed chart of TRAI.
