MumbaiSemi aims to become a global supplier of high-quality RF chips
India has developed its own satellite navigation system, NavIC, but much of the hardware required to receive its signals is still imported. MumbaiSemi, an IIT Bombay (IIT-B) spinout, aims to address this gap with an indigenous radio-frequency (RF) chip that can process signals from NavIC and other satellite navigation systems.

Founded in late 2024, the Mumbai-based deeptech startup is commercialising DhruvaPro, a programmable RF chip designed for the front end of navigation receivers. Unlike conventional chips that typically operate on specific frequency bands, DhruvaPro can be programmed to work across different bands, offering greater flexibility.
“We had almost six years of research at IIT-B, initially because there was a government project to develop an RF chip for NavIC. We went through two silicon iterations, both of which were successful, and…
