Sergei Lavrov will discuss "all issues concerning arrangements for the summit" on Monday with his Indian counterpart Pranab Mukherjee and Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, Minister-Counselor Andrei Sorokin said.
President Dmitry Medvedev will pay his first visit to India as Russia's head of state in early December.
The sides will discuss a wide range of bilateral issues, including a nuclear deal.
Russia and India are currently preparing to sign a bilateral nuclear agreement initialed in February 2008. Under the agreement, Russia will help build another four reactors at India's Kudankulam nuclear power plant, which so far has two. Further nuclear cooperation is also envisaged.
Atomstroyexport, Russia's nuclear power equipment and service export monopoly, has been building two reactors for the Kudankulam plant in the southern province of Tamil Nadu since 2002 in line with a 1988 deal between India and the then Soviet Union and an addendum signed 10 years later.
India earlier signed similar contracts with France and the United States.
The last Russian-Indian summit was held in November 2007, when Prime Minister Manmohan Singh visited Russia.
After visiting India, Lavrov will travel to Yerevan, Armenia's capital.
