Structured register of government actions in the geoeconomic space — export controls, tariffs, sanctions, FDI screening, subsidies, industrial-policy laws — cross-referenced into the country, minerals, and ETF surface. Charter: docs/IPTM_CHARTER.md.
Severity 1-5 is the qualitative impact rating (1=minor, 5=structural). The bilateral-trade-grounded quant scorer is the next IPTM milestone. RBI (Register Breadth Index) is a complementary structural-breadth indicator from scripts/py/iptm/breadth.py; divergence between RBI and severity is itself informative (high-sev / low-RBI = strategic chokepoint; low-sev / high-RBI = broad but shallow). Every action has at least one primary source URL. Verify-or-don't-file. See also themes, timeline, graph, sankey, map, country exposure, sector exposure, material exposure (+ graph), weekly briefs, portfolio scan, escalation monitor, trans-shipment hubs. Internal triage tools (RSS-poller candidate feed, source-feed health) live under /admin/candidates + /admin/sources. Subscribe via Atom feed (accepts ?country=CN, ?material=lithium, ?issuer=BIS, ?type=export_control, ?etf=SOXX, ?company=NVDA, ?minSeverity=4, ?year=2026, ?q=…) or pull /api/iptm/actions.
The Tamil Nadu Cabinet, chaired by Chief Minister M.K. Stalin, cleared the Tamil Nadu Space Industrial Policy 2025 on 17 April 2025, with the policy text published by TIDCO in May 2025. The policy targets INR 10,000 crore (~USD 1.2bn) in space-sector investment over five years and 10,000 jobs, anchored around four designated Space Bays in Madurai, Thoothukudi, Tirunelveli, and Virudhunagar. Key instruments include a INR 500 crore Tamil Nadu Emerging Sector Seed Fund (TNESSF) for space-sector startups, payroll subsidies for R&D and Global Capability Centre operators, and a TIDCO–IN-SPACe MoU to coordinate manufacturing and research facilitation. The policy operationalises the Union Indian Space Policy 2023 (ISP-2023) at the state level and establishes Tamil Nadu as a third space-sector sub-national policy node alongside Karnataka and Gujarat.
On 6 April 2023 India's Cabinet Committee on Security approved the Indian Space Policy 2023 (ISP-2023), released publicly on 20 April 2023. The policy is the foundational NewSpace-enablement instrument that opens end-to-end space activities — building satellites, launch vehicles, ground systems, and data services — to private Non-Government Entities (NGEs) for the first time, and codifies the division of responsibilities between ISRO (R&D for advanced technologies), IN-SPACe (commercial-ecosystem authorisation and promotion), NSIL (commercial production / launch services), and NGEs (commercial space activity including ITU filings and asteroid-resource recovery). ISP-2023 is the parent authority for IN-SPACe's subsequent Norms, Guidelines and Procedures (NGP-2024) and for all downstream private launch / FDI rules in the Indian space sector. It targets lifting India's share of the global space economy from ≈2% to ≈10%.
