Visa rules for India depend on your nationality, the purpose of your trip and how long you stay, and they change without much notice. We do not publish per-nationality visa rules because an out-of-date answer is worse than none. Check an official source before you book:
Check your passport's expiry date too: many countries require six months' validity beyond your return date, and airlines enforce it at the gate.
