The Surya missile is an intercontinental ballistic missile speculated to be in development by India.

According to a 1995 report published in The Nonproliferation Review, Surya (meaning the Sun in Sanskrit and many Indian languages) is the codename for one of the Intercontinental ballistic missiles that India is reported to be developing, for which there is no formal statement from India. The DRDO is believed to have begun the project in 1994. This report has not been confirmed by any other sources until 2010.

According to the report, the Surya is an intercontinental-range, surface-based, solid and liquid propellant ballistic missile. The report further adds that Surya is the most ambitious project in India's Integrated Guided Missile Development Programme. The surya missile is more of strategic in nature due to its capabilities and thus gives enemy mutually assured destruction. The Surya is speculated to have a range of more than 12,000, which brings almost all major nations of the world in its range.

It is to be a three-stage design, with the first two stages using solid propellants and the third-stage using liquid. The first stage is speculated to be borrowed from PSLV.

According to a 2013 report by The New Indian Express, Surya missile is being developed confidentially under the code-name of Agni-VI.
