Sheikh Hasina was originally scheduled to go to Delhi on December 19 on a three-day visit. But the trip was postponed following India's request.
"The Indian authorities have now proposed January 10 for our prime minister's visit," a foreign ministry director general told journalists at his office.
"We are yet to respond to the Indian request," he said.
The director general, however, said the duration of the visit will be fixed as per discussions between the two governments.
