Abstract High Current Injector (HCI) is an upcoming heavy ion accelerator facility at Inter-University Accelerator Centre (IUAC), New Delhi, INDIA and it will serve as an alternate injector to the existing Superconducting Linear Accelerator. HCI is designed to achieve the maximum energy gain of 1.8 MeV/u for the ions, including the Noble gasses and metallic ions, having A/q less than equal to 6. It consists of an 18 GHz High Temperature Superconducting Electron Cyclotron Resonance Ion Source, Multi-harmonic Buncher, Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ), Spiral Buncher and six interdigital H-mode Drift Tube Linac (IH-DTL) cavities operating at 97 MHz resonant frequency. The RFQ accelerates the ions from 8 keV/u to 180 keV/u energy and the six DTL cavities are used to achieve the maximum energy gain of 1.8 MeV/u. Recently, the bunched beam of N⁵⁺ was successfully accelerated through RFQ and six IH-DTL cavities and we achieved the designed energy, which is an important milestone of this project. These results validate the design parameters of all RF cavities, accelerating to achieve the designed energy goal of 1.8 MeV/u. Here, present status and future plans of the project shall be presented.
