The proposed international Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) at GSI-Darmstadt, will be a source of exotic radionuclidic beam and is expected to be operational in 2016. The facility will deliver 2 GeV/u to 45 GeV/u beam covering the entire range of the periodic table with the intensities three orders of magnitude higher than that available anywhere in the world today. This facility will serve all areas of fundamental sciences including nuclear physics, physics at extreme density conditions like neutron stars, plasma and laser physics, hadron physics and applied areas in chemistry, biology and material sciences. In this article, we discuss briefly the FAIR facility, with special emphasis on Indian participation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
