It has been speculated for some time that Modi is scheduling a trip to Britain in November when he comes to Turkey for a multilateral summit.
Indian Foreign Secretary S. Jaishankar was in the British capital last month for consultations with his counterpart at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, which included discussions on the visit.
While Modi's sojourn is eagerly awaited by the Gujarati Hindu community in Britain, he could be met by protests from human rights groups.
