Those are imported western sensors.
India has no indigenous semiconductor fabrication plant capable of manufacturing modern sensors.
Chinese tend to be enamored by 'Production' only. Semiconductor industry is a lot bigger than factories churning out chips. Actually, most of innovation is not in fabrication but in design and intellectual property. India has many good design houses. These companies are called 'fabless'. Big names in this business are likes of ARM, Xilinx etc. Here are some of Indian Fabless semiconductor companies.
1. Ineda systems : They make SoC design for IoT and automotive domain.
2.
Infineon Technologies : Security chips, smart cards, SoC products, Wireless based on ARM uPs.
3. Saankhaya Labs : Software Defined Radio chipsets, DTV, Wireless ISP products.
Oh when it comes to fabrication, No Chinese company is in top 20 list in Fabs. Interestingly, Taiwan has quite a few fabs.

Ever heard of NAVIKA?
India has no commercial semiconductor plants.
But India has plants for research purpose and I've earlier told you that elsewhere where India makes them.
You know that? Right.
Hence, simple deductive reasoning means India imports critical western semiconductors and satellite sensors.
India still may be importing a lot, it's first plant is still in construction and
no one is denying but that doesn't mean you got license to credit away from designing & coding.
Israel did not invent the advanced sensor. Israel tinkered with an American design. The technology on RISAT-2 is American.
May be but I don't guess China got itself either.
It has license production facilities from British Company ARM and other types of ToTs from US between 1966-99 (that's a different issue, may cause flame bait, don't wanna bring here).
It's 28nm and which is even outdated for modern smartphones or electronics. Leader is Taiwan.
That's
China too assembles advanced electronics like India but at much better & larger scale.
India had either cold response from west or sanctioned most of time. Now, sanctions are gone, OEMs are coming to India.
Well said, your posts are very informative, well supported with links hence very much appreciated. Unfortunately some trolls have the tendency to drag India into everything
@Martian is most informed member when comes about China but not about other countries (or knows it but not shows it). He simply declared that India doesn't produce semiconductors , probably never researched or didn't show even if knew (SCL Chandigarh, NAVIKA sensor etc., we have a thread for it.)
Agreed, the guy who who started this baiting has even "fanboy" in name.
But I honestly think you too must research before assuming anything.
India has 180-800 nm chips, simply outdated technology (and India not making semiconductors is utter false, outdated but we have it plus China too assembles most) but Chinese productions too are licensed products of British Company ARM.
Sanctions are gone, India can get foreign technology now but problem is investment.
But 10nm is applied for "modern" electronics.
Alone for 28nm -90 nm commercial facilities like China, India needs to invest $10 billions which seems to have unclear.
For modern 10nm chips, you have to invest 100 billions in facilities!
