I saw this on Twitter and had the same question. He is a blogger seemingly but doesn't claim to be a journalist of any sort.

None...

But they will arrive in India only by April 2020... IAF need to test them in France...
The first batch coming to India will be 4 Rafales...
All the 36 will be delivered by 2022-23...

That's 7-8 years after contract signing for plane in service, Dasualt is making HAL looking efficient.

nachiket You are talking like Dead hand and all those are real news!
They are also speculations.
Only difference is Twitter guys don't get paid for their tweets.

Vips wrote:I hope NM will try to get some TOT or substantial investment by Safran for Kaveri engine. The additional 36 jets order can be used as a leverage. If we are going to pay 60 million Euros more per jet then what Egypt is paying then this amount is being surely paid for getting something extra.

IMO a better deal would be to just buy 54+spare(or however many we can afford) Rafales as G2G, close the MMRCA tamasha, and ask Dassault to form a JV with HAL or any other pvt player to build a TFTA facility for integration of 5th gen aircraft with fault tolerance in microns and the whole shebang. Build Tier1 suppliers, handhold them to make a jump towards industry 4.0. If possible integrate them into Rafale supply chain. The facility should be able to churn out 15-20 AMCAs a year whenever it comes online.
This IMO would be a better outcome than all the ToT tamasha.
