Israeli chipmaker Tower Semiconductors has resubmitted a proposal to develop a semiconductor fabrication unit in India for 65 nm and 40 nm chips. Nevertheless, the company is currently entangled in legal proceedings with Next Orbit Ventures, a former joint venture partner based in Abu Dhabi. Next Orbit Ventures is initiating a lawsuit against Tower Semiconductors for proceeding with the submission of a new proposal with a different partner.

Next Orbit Ventures is likely to challenge the new proposal, claiming a breach of the terms of the contract. According to sources, the new partner under this proposal might be the BC Jindal Group.
