India aims to expand its nuclear power capacity to 100 GWe by 2047 with a focus on both large indigenous reactors and at least five indigenous Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) by 2033, backed by the Nuclear Energy Mission and new legislation to boost private sector participation.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Clean Energy.

◆ The Wire takeaway

India is opening substantial market demand for nuclear technology and manufacturing as it pushes indigenous SMRs and large reactors. If you operate in clean energy or nuclear supply chains, this creates a direct sales opportunity and incentive to align with Indian partners now.
