A strike by more than 1,000 workers at a Samsung India Electronics plant has entered its third week. Management is at an impasse over their demands for recognition of the employees’ union and higher pay. Samsung India Electronics workers union spokesman said that the employees' strike at the plant near the southern city of Chennai started with a key demand for a 25-30% pay hike in the average monthly salary. A Samsung official said Wednesday that management was prepared to discuss the workers’ demands. Samsung said that it paid 1.8 times more in India than the average salary of similar workers employed at other regional companies.

Women workers are housed in hostels that restrict their movement. This helps keep a lid on their working conditions, activists say.

First Solar has commenced production of its 3.5 GW plant in Sriperumbudur, near Chennai, supported by a Rs 1,170 crore allocation from India's PLI-2 scheme. It is investing $684 million in the plant to produce thin film modules, using Cadmium Telluride (CadTel) semiconductor material. The US IDFC has committed $500 million to the project. First Solar holds a unique position to manufacture solar PV modules for the Indian market, as they do not depend on the silicon value chain concentrated in China. It has an order backlog of 72 GW extending through 2029.
