The US nuclear industry, coordinated by the US-India Strategic Partnership Forum (USISPF), is preparing a comprehensive submission to India's Department of Atomic Energy by the September 4 deadline on draft rules under the SHANTI Act. These rules open India's atomic energy sector to private participation, outlining licensing, liability caps, and project structuring. The draft includes a five-year review of liability caps by an expert group. USISPF held discussions with Indian legal experts and the Nuclear Energy Institute to assess implications and provide feedback.
