SS: ### **Summary: India to Ease Nuclear Laws to Attract Private Investment**
India is set to amend its nuclear laws to attract private capital and expand its nuclear energy sector, aiming to reduce reliance on fossil fuels. Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced plans to revise the civil nuclear liability law, which has deterred foreign suppliers due to strict liability provisions on plant operators and equipment manufacturers.
Additionally, the government will allocate $2.3 billion for the development of small and modular reactors. The reforms will also allow private companies to enter nuclear power generation, previously monopolized by the state-run Nuclear Power Corporation of India Ltd.
With global momentum toward net-zero emissions, India seeks to scale up nuclear power capacity to 100 gigawatts by 2047—a tenfold increase from current levels—positioning nuclear energy as a key player in its clean energy transition.
