The 29-year-old left-arm spinner picked up the niggle after DC's second game of the season against Rajasthan Royals in Jaipur, which the team lost.
The player was forced to miss out on the next couple of contests where veteran pacer Ishant Sharma returned to the playing XI.
"It will take some time for him to be match fit," an IPL source told PTI when asked about Kuldeep's status.
Since he is a centrally-contracted player and a T20 World Cup hopeful, National Cricket Academy's sports science and medical team will have a big say in Kuldeep's injury and rehab management.
It is mandatory for franchises to report niggles and injury concerns of an India player to the NCA.
