I am guessing from the name you have applied in India, current processing tmie is between 40 and 60 days roughly. Look at my time line below, I am still waiting.

But someone that applied about a week before me got a update on Friday and is waiting to pick up from VFS at the moment.

As advised by Pazpatel,the timeline is around 45 days on an average.
You should wait atleast 2-3 weeks more.
