India waives nuclear import duties until 2035 to accelerate 10 new reactors, aiming for 22 GW by 2032.

India has announced zero customs duty on nuclear project imports until 2035 to cut costs and speed up development, supporting ten new 700 MW reactors. NPCIL is boosting local supply chains through bulk procurement, indigenous equipment, and MSME involvement. R&D at BARC is advancing Small Modular Reactors, medical isotopes, hydrogen, and materials. The SHANTI Bill 2025 replaced outdated nuclear laws, but no plans exist to link nuclear parks with PM Gati Shakti logistics. Nuclear capacity is projected to reach about 22 GW by FY2032.
