While Rajan's case for Indian universities is a strong one and worth acting on, his case for smuggling chips is squarely in the domain of absurdity. The piece below tells you why "Smuggling Is Not An Industrial Policy". https://t.co/txXOZUgCB6 874 views · 38 likes · 3 reposts · 0 replies 03 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

Since 2024, he's also asked whether the chip money should have gone to education instead. But India was never choosing between the two. The 76,000 crore committed in 2021 is spread over years and lies mostly unspent. And the education ministry gets 1.39 lakh crore every year. h 899 views · 31 likes · 2 reposts · 1 replies 03 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

Rajan says officials pick shiny things without thinking about comparative advantage. But which country was ever naturally good at making chips? Korea and Taiwan were poor and had no chip industry at all. Their governments paid for one, for decades, until they had one. https://t 605 views · 33 likes · 2 reposts · 1 replies 03 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

He also overlooks that there is money in the capability too. Of a $1,000 iPhone, Apple keeps about $450 for design, software and brand, and Taiwan earns $150 for making the chips. India and China, who assemble the phone and employ the workers, get about $30 each. https://t.co/w 650 views · 39 likes · 4 reposts · 1 replies 03 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

Rajan also says India must make its own munitions, because nobody sells those in a war. But what are modern munitions? Mostly chips — the guidance in a shell, the seeker in a missile, the flight controller in a drone. A country wants its own munitions must make its own chips. h 697 views · 37 likes · 3 reposts · 1 replies 03 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

That said, some of what Rajan said in the interview is worth hearing. - Manufacturing's worker share has not moved in 10 years. - Indian firms ask for protection, instead of trying to beat the Chinese rivals. - India missed the battery and EV shifts. - Universities are starved. 728 views · 40 likes · 3 reposts · 2 replies 03 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

A data centre has no back channel, and carmakers need magnets by the tonne. Now, Russia does keep its war going by paying several times the price for small lots of older chips. But that works for a weapons programme, not a car industry serving 1.4 billion people. https://t.co/Bt 836 views · 35 likes · 3 reposts · 1 replies 03 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

India has also been cut off before too. In 1991 ISRO sought cryogenic engine technology from Russia. The US sanctioned and pressured Moscow to supply the finished engines, and withhold the knowhow to build them. India had no choice but to build on its own. It took 22 years. htt 809 views · 37 likes · 2 reposts · 1 replies 03 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

Neither refusal had anything to do with price. A quota does not care how much you offer, and paperwork cannot be outbid. China also processes more than 90% of the world's rare earths, so there was nowhere else to go. https://t.co/5duTcpUYcA 947 views · 42 likes · 2 reposts · 1 replies 03 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

Three months before that, Washington had split the world into three tiers for buying advanced GPUs. India went into the second. It required licences and got a ceiling of ~50,000 chips for the entire country. India's AI Mission was buying exactly those chips at the time. https:/ 1.2K views · 46 likes · 4 reposts · 1 replies 03 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

Can smuggling be a legit industrial policy? 🧵 Well, that is roughly what Raghuram Rajan is proposing. - Chips are the easiest thing on earth to smuggle, he says, so nobody can stop India buying them. - And if the world shuns us, 35 million NRIs abroad will buy them for us. ht 20.7K views · 632 likes · 176 reposts · 17 replies 03 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

Last year India failed to buy two critical things. One, rare-earth magnets. China's mandated paperwork was taking months to process the exports. These magnets go into window motors, wiper assemblies, speakers, and so on. As a result, carmakers warned of an impending shutdown. h 1.5K views · 55 likes · 4 reposts · 1 replies 03 Sep 2026 · Open on X →
