Panache helps companies build chips faster, smarter and more cost-efficiently, with custom ASIC design, connected IoT products, and RTL-to-GDSII engineering services for startups, technology companies and global enterprises.
Who We Are
Panache is an Indian, ISO-certified, listed design and manufacturing company.
What We Do
Hand us the whole chip, bring us in to make your silicon work inside a product, or add specialist engineers to the programme you already run. We shape the engagement around where you need help.
You bring the idea and the specification. We own everything that follows, from architecture and RTL through verification, physical design, DFT and tape-out, and hand back working silicon.
Explore the ASIC journey
Silicon matters once it is connected. We build complete IoT products end to end: sensor nodes and gateways, secure cloud platforms, and the dashboards and analytics that turn telemetry into decisions.
Explore IoT solutions
Your team owns the programme and we fill the gap: RTL design and verification, a complete RTL-to-GDSII flow, custom verification IP, or a dedicated offshore design centre.

Our design methodology adapts to the constraints that matter most in each domain, whether that is power, thermal envelope, safety, or raw throughput.
Our Design Flow
Every engagement follows the same disciplined flow. You can join us at any stage, with a named technical lead from the first call through to production silicon.

Why Panache
Specialists at every stage of the silicon lifecycle. No generalists filling seats on a chip programme.
A defined flow with clear gates and reviews at each handoff, so schedule risk surfaces early rather than at tape-out.
Building a portfolio of Semiconductor IP and Verification IP that shortens future programmes for our clients and for us.
World-class silicon capability built in India, serving clients across global markets.
Careers
Bring your passion for silicon. Work on real chips from RTL to tape-out, and help build India's semiconductor future.
Tell us about your programme: target node, application, and where you need support. We respond within 48 hours.
Home · Silicon Solutions · ASIC Design
A standard part asks your product to live with someone else’s compromises. Custom silicon works the other way round: every block, interface and power domain is shaped around your workload, so the performance, power budget and die area are the ones your product actually needs, and nothing is paid for twice. We take that from a specification to a part you can hold.
The ASIC Journey
One team takes your idea all the way to silicon. You can hand off at the point that suits you, with support that runs from specification consulting and architecture planning through layout, tape-out and post-silicon bring-up. Select a stage to see what we deliver and the tools we use.
Engagement Models
Three commercial models. The right one depends on how much of the programme you want to own internally.
Share your target node, application and timeline. We will come back with a proposed team and engagement model.

Home · Silicon Solutions · Design & Engineering Services
Specialist engineering capacity for teams already running a programme: RTL design and architecture, design verification, DFT, and physical design through to sign-off.
Front-End Design
Our RTL design and architecture services cover the entire development lifecycle, from microarchitecture definition and RTL implementation through to seamless IP, subsystem and full SoC integration.
We prioritise energy efficiency through advanced low-power design techniques, including clock gating, power intent definition and UPF implementation.
To ensure design robustness and silicon readiness, we run rigorous linting, CDC and RDC analysis, reset integrity checks, formal logical equivalence, and synthesis preparation.
Verification
Backed by a talented team, our world-class design verification group specialises in multi-million-gate SoC and IP verification.
Our technical leads deliver comprehensive solutions for digital and analog mixed-signal architectures, spanning functional, gate-level, power-aware and formal verification.
Partner with us to bring precision, innovation and peak performance to your next silicon design.
DFT
Panache delivers Design for Testability solutions built to raise IC test coverage, yield and overall quality.
Combining a strong ATE test team with world-class infrastructure, we help secure first-pass silicon success, from architecture development and scan methodology through memory BIST, boundary scan and RTL-level quality checks.
Our engineers work with tools including Modus, Tessent, SpyGlass and VCS to keep test structures precise and manufacturable.
Back-End Implementation
Panache brings full-chip, IP and block-level proficiency to physical design, covering SoC full-chip designs, IP development and block-level implementation.
Our core strengths are area-critical low-power designs, high-performance architectures, PPA and run-time optimisation, and deep expertise in tools, flows and methods (TFM).
We specialise in PD-CAD design flow automation, delivering tailored solutions across industries while working closely with leading foundries, backed by extensive proficiency in EDA toolchains.
Tell us which phase needs support, your node and your timeline. We will propose a team structure within 48 hours.
Home · About Us
Panache is a semiconductor technology venture focused on world-class engineering, proprietary IP, and next-generation silicon solutions.
Our Story
Panache is a next-generation semiconductor technology venture focused on building world-class silicon engineering capability, proprietary IP, and next-generation chip solutions for startups, technology companies, and global enterprises.
We deliver end-to-end semiconductor design and engineering, from architecture and RTL through verification, physical design, DFT, AMS, and tape-out, helping organisations accelerate complex chip development with greater speed and confidence.
Beyond services, we are building an R&D and IP portfolio, developing proprietary Semiconductor IP and Verification IP while exploring RISC-V and intelligent silicon architectures. Our ambition is to prove that deep silicon technology can be built in India, not merely assembled here.
Vision & Mission
To build India’s most trusted semiconductor execution company and a global partner for silicon innovation.
To enable companies to build chips faster, smarter and more cost-efficiently through execution-driven design solutions.
