NTPC Ltd and the Nuclear Power Corporation of India are seeking bids for the Mahi Banswara Rajasthan nuclear power project in the current financial year. The project, estimated to cost around ₹44,800 crore, is part of the government's target to increase nuclear power capacity from 7,480 MW to 22,800 MW by 2031-32. The joint venture, Anushakti Vidhyut Nigam, was incorporated in November 2016 but did not take off.
