9.8
India's parliament approved the SHANTI Bill in December 2025, repealing the Atomic Energy Act and opening the civil nuclear sector to private companies while granting statutory independence to the Atomic Energy Regulatory Board. India operates 25 reactors (8.88 GW) and targets 100 GW by 2047, requiring about ₹19 lakh crore ($214 billion); Holtec announced plans for up to 200 SMRs and firms like Adani explore nuclear for AI data centres.
