TORRANCE, CA and HYDERABAD, India, Dec 9, 2025 – Navitas Semiconductor and Cyient Semiconductors have partnered to expand gallium nitride (GaN) technology in India and strengthen global supply options for power electronics. The companies plan to develop local design and production work for GaN power devices, which support chargers, data centers and electric vehicles.
Navitas and Cyient plan to co-develop GaN products, digital and mixed-signal ICs, GaN power modules and design platforms. Their partnership targets high-power markets in India, including AI data centers, electric vehicles, performance computing, energy grid infrastructure and industrial power systems.
The partnership also plans to build a local supply chain that supports India’s manufacturing goals under the Indian Government’s “Make in India” initiative. They aim to use their IC design to speed up development of power devices for high-voltage and high-power markets.
This will include products based on Navitas’ existing GaN technology and new designs tailored for India’s market needs. Cyient plans to build a secure supply chain for GaN devices in India, which could shorten development cycles for developers and OEMs.
Suman Narayan, CEO, Cyient Semiconductors, said: “This partnership represents a pivotal step in India’s semiconductor future in solving the complexities of power delivery at high voltages. By combining Navitas’ proven GaN technology with Cyient Semi’s design, manufacturing, and supply-chain strengths, we’re creating a self-sustaining ecosystem that will accelerate the market adoption of GaN. Our goal is to make GaN accessible to every OEM looking to design, build, and scale from India.”
“I believe the growth of GaN technology in India will exceed global trends, and Cyient Semiconductors is the perfect partner for Navitas to drive this revolution,” said Chris Allexandre, president and CEO of Navitas. “Together, Navitas and Cyient will power India’s vision of India for India – innovation, by India, for the world.”
The initiative aims to give Indian design firms and equipment makers access to locally sourced GaN parts and manufacturing support. The companies say this could speed development work and reduce obstacles to using GaN in India’s power and electronics markets.
The partnership between Cyient and Navitas expands India’s engineering base for GaN devices, adding another source of design and production capacity to the global power electronics market. It gives developers in India access to GaN components and provides technical support that can reduce design cycles, improve device integration and streamline product development.
