Capacitor is a key passive electrical component used to store energy in electrical and electronic equipment or devices. In India, the demand for electrical capacitor is expected to increase primarily due to rising demand for consumer durables, IT hardware coupled with use of electrical circuitry in diverse applications.
Various types of capacitors that are available in the market include electrolytic, ceramic, film, solid double layer, carbon, dielectricThe insulating material between the plates of the capacitor. The material is chosen for its ability to permit electrostatic attraction and repulsion to take place across it. The material will have the property that energy required to establish an electric field is recoverable in whole or in part, as electric energy. In other words, a good dielectric material is a poor conductor of electricity while being an effective supporter of electrostatic fields. and paper & plastic. Despite significant demand for capacitors, India lags behind in capacitor manufacturing due to lack of manufacturing base for the same. Although India majorly relies on imports of numerous electronics products, equipment and components from other countries, primarily China, Japan and Taiwan, the country’s Electronic System Design & Manufacturing (ESDM) market has witnessed a significant transformation over the past few years. In addition, the government’s support of allowing 100% FDI in the electronics hardware manufacturing sector has provided an automatic route for increasing electronic component manufacturing, including electrical capacitors in the country.
