"He (Ganguly) has resumed training and will be back for the Bangalore game on Wednesday," Karunakaran Nair, secretary of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), said.
"It should be subject to fitness but I don't see any problems and he has already joined the side."
Nair also said experienced leg spinner Anil Kumble, who missed Thursday's four-wicket defeat by New Zealand following the death of his father, would return for the Bangalore match.
The 30-year-old Ganguly has been sidelined for almost a month.
The India skipper shrugged off the pain to hit an unbeaten 100 in the first Test against New Zealand in Ahmedabad in the second week of October but missed the next game in Mohali. Both Tests were drawn.
Rahul Dravid has captained the team in Ganguly's absence.
After four tri-series matches, India and the Kiwis have nine points each. World champions Australia, top of the standings with 18 points, have already qualified for the November 18 final in Kolkata.
