The deal was announced in April under which French manufacturer Dassault Aviation will sell 35 of these jets to India in a deal estimated at over $5.5 billion.
"I'll be going to India very soon to see how things are coming along, but I have no concerns it will happen," Le Drian said at the Paris International Air Show.
"The discussions with the Indian authorities are progressing very well," he said.
Le Drian held a meeting with Rao Inderjit Singh, minister of state for defence, on the sidelines of the show while further discussions will take place tomorrow. Asked how long until a final deal would be concluded, he said "in the order of two or three months".
India has in recent years launched a vast defence modernisation programme worth about $100 billion. Prime Minister Narendra Modi wants to end India's dependence on arms import and to have 70 per cent of hardware manufactured within the country.
