The project includes a 3.6 GW high-efficiency solar cell manufacturing facility and a pilot wafer and ingot line, marking a significant step in the company’s strategy to deepen backward integration and strengthen India’s domestic solar manufacturing ecosystem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The proposed expansion is designed to enhance domestic value addition, reduce long-term dependence on imported components, and support India’s broader clean energy and manufacturing ambitions. The project will be developed in phases, with Phase I targeted for commissioning in 2027 and subsequent capacity additions planned thereafter, subject to market conditions and project readiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As part of the project, civil work, covering over 10 lakh sq ft, is currently underway. Navitas Solar has put in place the required technology tie-up for the planned manufacturing line and appointed senior leadership to spearhead the new business vertical. The company is further strengthening its project execution, manufacturing, technology, and quality functions with experienced talent to support the successful implementation of the expansion and its long-term growth plans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cell manufacturing facility is being designed as a highly automated and future-ready production platform capable of supporting next-generation solar technologies. The manufacturing line will be developed with upgradeability and flexibility to adapt to evolving technology pathways, including potential transitions to advanced cell architectures, subject to market and technology readiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along with this investment, a strategic pilot wafer and ingot line is planned in 2027 as a part of its long-term roadmap for deeper backward integration. The initiative is expected to strengthen internal capabilities, enhance technology understanding, and support future localization requirements across the solar value chain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Commenting on the development, Vineet Mittal, Director Finance &amp; Strategy, Navitas Solar, said, “India’s clean energy transition requires strong domestic manufacturing capabilities across the entire solar value chain. Our planned integrated manufacturing expansion in Gujarat is a strategic step towards building a future-ready platform across modules, cells and deeper backward integration. With civil work underway, technology partnership in place, key government approvals secured and senior leadership appointed to drive the project, we are progressing with a clear focus on execution, quality, innovation, and long-term competitiveness. This expansion reflects our commitment to strengthening India’s manufacturing ecosystem, enhancing supply-chain resilience and supporting the country's vision of becoming a global clean energy manufacturing hub.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The expansion comes at a pivotal time for India’s solar sector, following the Government’s implementation of the ALMM List-II framework for solar PV cells. As domestic module manufacturing capacity continues to expand, the availability of approved domestic solar cells is becoming a critical factor for project planning, supply-chain security, and long-term competitiveness. Navitas Solar’s proposed 3.6 GW cell facility is aligned with this national policy direction and is expected to support the industry’s transition towards higher domestic value addition, reduced import dependence and stronger clean energy self-reliance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The project is expected to generate nearly 1,000 employment opportunities across manufacturing, engineering, operations, project execution, quality assurance, and research functions, while also creating significant indirect employment across logistics, ancillary industries, and supporting services. Navitas Solar currently has an annual solar module manufacturing capacity of 3 GW and offers a comprehensive portfolio of Mono PERC and high-efficiency TOPCon modules ranging from 40W to 720W. The company also has upstream integration through its subsidiary, Navitas Alpha Renewables Pvt Ltd, which manufactures solar encapsulants, further strengthening the group’s position across the solar manufacturing ecosystem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this planned INR 1,500 crore investment, Navitas Solar is taking a significant step towards becoming a more integrated, technology-driven, and future-ready solar manufacturer, reinforcing its long-term commitment to innovation, self-reliance, and India’s clean energy future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>For more information:\u003C\u002Fstrong> \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.navitassolar.com\">www.navitassolar.com\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>","https:\u002F\u002Fmedia.magicwandmedia.in\u002Fposts\u002FJune2026\u002Fnews\u002Fnavitas-solar-announces-inr-1500-crore-integrated-manufacturing-expansion-in-gujarat-LfSNKk.jpg","https:\u002F\u002Fmedia.magicwandmedia.in\u002Fsocial\u002Fhorizontal\u002Fposts\u002FJune2026\u002Fnews\u002Fnavitas-solar-announces-inr-1500-crore-integrated-manufacturing-expansion-in-gujarat-LfSNKk.jpg","2026-06-24T23:50:39+05:30","MWM Desk","News",0,"Navitas Solar expands with a 3.6 GW solar cell facility in Gujarat.\nInvestment focuses on backward integration and domestic value addition.\nProject aims to boost India's solar manufacturing ecosystem and reduce import dependence.",null,"Big news!
