	Funding: * The project is supported jointly by Board of Research in Nuclear Sciences and Inter University Accelerator Center The demand for a light source with high brightness and short pulse length from the researchers in the field of physical, chemical, biological and medical sciences is growing in India. To cater to the experimental needs of multidisciplinary sciences, a project to develop a compact Light Source at Inter University Accelerator Centre (IUAC) has been taken up. In the first phase of the project, prebunched [1] electron beam of ~ 8 MeV will be produced by a photocathode RF gun and coherent THz radiation will be produced by a short undulator magnet. In the second phase, the energy of the electron beam will be increased up to 50 MeV by two sets of superconducting niobium resonators. The coherent IR radiation will be produced by using an undulator magnet (conventional method) and X-rays by Inverse Compton Scattering. To increase the average brightness of the electromagnetic radiation, fabrication of superconducting RF gun is going to be started in a parallel development. In this paper the detailed design of the LSI accelerator complex as well as construction timetable will be presented. The physical principles of THz generation and major accelerator subsystems will be discussed. [1] S. Liu & J.Urakawa, Proc. of FEL 2011, page-92
