        abstract = {India's Semiconductor Mission 2025 is a strategic effort to reduce import dependence, promote domestic manufacturing, and establish India as a major global player in the field of advanced electronics. While current policies prioritize infrastructure, investment, and skills development, the role of intellectual property rights, especially patents, has not yet been fully studied. Patents are critical in the semiconductor industry worldwide, driving innovation and competitive advantage. Countries like the United States, Taiwan, South Korea, and China have established their dominance in the semiconductor sector through strong patent systems and sustained research investment. This study critically examines India's semiconductor patent ecosystem, the challenges faced by domestic innovators, and policy shortcomings. It highlights the urgent need for reforms to enhance competitiveness, protect innovation, and achieve the goals of the Semiconductor Mission 2025.},
