As far as I understand, they start once your file is complete, which is when they officially get biometrics. In the case of India, it's a processing time of 52 days, which is better than Brazil (71 days now).
Basically the end of August (21 days in July and 31 days in August).
I also applied from Brazil. Do you have any updates?
My biometrics were stored on June 22nd. No update yet
