Looks into the Nilgiri class (around 26 min mark) w.r.t mostly the context of mission sets relative to other frigate classes of the world.

~ USD 7.4 billion


"The request for proposal, or RFP, has been sent to Category A shipyards, including Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders Ltd, Garden Reach Shipbuilders and Engineers, Goa Shipyard Ltd and Cochin Shipyard Ltd, according to CNBC-TV18.

The tender marks a change in the way the Navy is procuring major surface warships. CNBC-TV18 reported that Project 17B is the first major Indian Navy warship programme of this kind to be put through competitive bidding."

Too late. Not sure what prevented the IN to go for 14 P17 at the same time. Program would have been atleast Billion or more cheaper with next 7 ships delivered within the next 3 years. Only support ships are to be delivered in the next 5 years minus S5*.
