The Russian nuclear submarine was to have been leased in 2008, but was put on hold following an accident during a 2008 sea trial in the Sea of Japan.
The $650m lease contract delivery was signed in 2004 and will make India the sixth country to operate nuclear submarines along with the US, UK, France, China and Russia.
