India — Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology & Alibaba Group

India — Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology: The India — Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology in China is involved in the country's industrial policy and technology development, which influences Beijing's stance on foreign chip imports.

Alibaba Group: Alibaba Group is one of the approximately 10 Chinese firms approved by the United States — United States Department of Commerce to purchase Nvidia's H200 chips, but has not yet received any deliveries due to the ongoing trade deadlock.

India — Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology: The India — Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology is cited by the Pentagon as an entity to which Alibaba Group is affiliated, contributing to its designation as a Chinese military company. Alibaba Group states compliance with this ministry is mandatory for all companies in China, not an affiliation.

Alibaba Group: Alibaba Group has sued the U.S. Department of Defense to be removed from a list of Chinese military companies, arguing the designation lacks factual basis and causes significant reputational and financial harm by losing U.S. partners.
