No, there is no inductive reactance in DC (Direct Current).
Inductive reactance, which is the opposition to current flow caused by an inductor, only exists in AC (Alternating Current) circuits. In AC, the current continuously changes direction, and the inductor resists these changes in current due to its property of inductance.
However, in a DC circuit, once the current starts flowing, it becomes constant, and the inductor initially resists changes to current when the circuit is first powered on. But after that, the inductor behaves like a short circuit (essentially, a piece of wire with no resistance) because the current is steady. So, there is no reactance in DC after the initial moment when the current starts.
