These are known as Ground Waves and its wavelength is of 1000s of Km (100,000 to 10,000 km).100s of metres under water. But, if the submarine is say, near Taiwan, how will India communicate?
So it could travel across the earth.

Undereater Drones can also be used. a small drone will come up, receive signals and will transfer the message to the submarine. No need to expose the whole big SUB for communication.100s of metres under water. But, if the submarine is say, near Taiwan, how will India communicate?
SSBN will provide us the facility to fire missile from our place of choice as per the mission requirements.Why can't India simply hide the missile in lakes and oceans in pontoons instead of having submarines?
Does India have the communication satellites to cover areas other than in near IOR?Undereater Drones can also be used. a small drone will come up, receive signals and will transfer the message to the submarine. No need to expose the whole big SUB for communication.

As I know, satellites position can be changed as per mission requirements.Does India have the communication satellites to cover areas other than in near IOR?
Answer is Inmarsat, India has been using it for a long time and they have a gateway in India now.Does India have the communication satellites to cover areas other than in near IOR?
May it be a clue that there will be a follow on order to the 6 already ordered ?India to Build Advanced Repair Facility for Scorpene-Class Submarines
Six Scorpene-class submarines are being manufactured at India's Mazgaon Dock Limited facility with the technical support of French naval shipbuilding firm Naval Group, previously known as DCNS. All six submarines are expected to join the Indian Navy by 2022.
With six Scorpene-class submarines expected to join the Indian Navy in the next four years, the country's defence ministry has pushed forward plans to build an advanced repair facility.
The ministry has signed a contract worth $57.59 million with French firm Thales to set up a repair facility at a port off the eastern coast, an Indian Defence Ministry official told Sputnik on the condition of anonymity.

"The ministry signed a contract for setting up an advanced level repair facility for the underwater surveillance system, electronic support measures and external communication system for Scorpene (P-75) submarine for Indian Navy with Thales DMS France," the official said.
The Scorpene-class submarines are being manufactured at the Mazgaon Dock Limited facility with technical support from French naval shipbuilding firm Naval Group, earlier known as DCNS. The first boat was scheduled to enter service in 2012, seven years after signing the deal, but India's MDL shipbuilder could deliver the submarine only as early as December 2017.

The two other Scorpene-class submarines are now set to join the Indian Navy in 2019. Subsequently, every year after 2019, one submarine is going to be delivered to the Indian Navy, with the last one entering service in 2022.
By 2022, the Indian Navy expects at least 18 submarines to be in its service, of which eight will be indigenous.

We have established a facility called Very low frequency to communicate with Submarines.These are known as Ground Waves and its wavelength is of 1000s of Km (100,000 to 10,000 km).
So it could travel across the earth.
We have advanced into ELF now.We have established a facility called Very low frequency to communicate with Submarines.
Indigenous AIP module for submarines undergoing trialsWe must produce atleast 3 more because Project 75(I) is struck in bureaucratic delay for indefinite time period. Subsequent making will be easy, fast and and cheap. What is the status of AIP?
The first Scorpene submarine Kalvari has joined the Navy. It will go for a normal refit in 2023. The next two submarines are in various stages of sea trials.Under a revised plan, the AIP module will be installed on the submarines during upgrades. However, it is a complex and costly task.
I think....Scorpenes from Malaysian Navy could also make use of this facility.India to Build Advanced Repair Facility for Scorpene-Class Submarines
