The Indian side has approved the allocation of $2.3 billion dollars, for the Admiral Gorshkov. The air-craft carriers will be renamed ‘Vikramditya’. India asked the Russians to provide them with the aircraft carrier and the Russian side asked for the renovation amount. Admiral Gorshkov was not in use for more than a decade. Later the renovation costs shoot up and this time this issue will be high on agenda during president Putin’s visit to India.
