The Centre is finalising a revised Model Bilateral Investment Treaty (BIT) for the Cabinet’s consideration soon. This revision is expected to shorten the timeframe for investors to exhaust domestic legal remedies before initiating international arbitration to resolve disputes, Economic Affairs Secretary Anuradha Thakur said on Friday. The review seeks to balance stronger investor protection with India’s sovereign interests while reflecting evolving global investment practices and the growing international footprint of Indian companies, she said, speaking at the NCAER India Policy Forum 2026.
