Highness Microelectronics Limited has been honoured with the ‘Display Rising Star Award’ at the India Display Conference 2026, recognising its rapid progress in vertically integrating display module manufacturing.

The award highlights the company’s strengthening of India’s domestic display manufacturing ecosystem through expanded in-house capabilities. Highness operates as a vertically integrated design-led electronics manufacturing firm, serving sectors including Defence & Aerospace, Railways, Medical & Healthcare, and Industrial Automation.

Manufacturing Expansion

The recognition coincides with significant upgrades to the company’s Rabale facility in Navi Mumbai. The site has evolved from a standard display manufacturing operation into a more integrated hub, now featuring in-house glass cutting and clean-room operations. This expansion allows for greater control over key stages of display production, supporting quality and consistency.

New Goa Facility

Highness is developing a new integrated facility in Goa to further strengthen its manufacturing footprint. The planned infrastructure will incorporate Chip-on-Glass (COG) and Film-on-Glass (FOG) bonding technologies. This investment aims to build advanced display manufacturing capabilities for the domestic market, complementing existing operations in Navi Mumbai.

Industry Recognition

Harit Doshi, President-Elect of the Society for Information Display and CEO of Omniply Technologies, commented on the achievement. He noted that Highness’ pace of innovation and execution reflects the momentum building within India’s display industry, setting an example for others in the ecosystem.
