The #NationalQuantumMission received cabinet approval at a total cost of Rs. 6003.65 crore, to scale up scientific and industrial R&D, for accelerating Quantum Technology led economic growth and to leverage India into a leading nation in the area. The mission is expected to benefit communication, health, finance, and energy as well as drug design and Space applications.

In the past, India had adopted technologies developed abroad and implemented them here, but the National Quantum Mission has a distinction. The National Quantum Mission is the only mission, so far, wherein Indian scientists will develop its own technology. Though India will need international cooperation, it will be mainly for knowledge exchange. The establishment of the National Quantum Mission, with investments in infrastructure, labs and test-beds, will enable Indian industry and academia to take IP leadership in a technology area of strategic importance. The new mission targets developing intermediate scale quantum computers with 50-1000 physical qubits in 8 years in various platforms like superconducting and photonic technology. With this the Satellite based secure quantum communications between ground stations over a range of 2000 kilometres within India, long distance secure quantum communications with other countries, inter-city quantum key distribution over 2000 km as well as multi-node Quantum network with quantum memories are also some of the deliverables of the Mission.
