This work focus on:

1. Help people find their ancestors
2. Link them to family line
3. Do Temple ordinances for them

​I'm not sure there is a group that is India-focused currently. But depending on what you're looking for, this group is probably a good place to start, if only because I imagine your experience may be similar to other Asian areas who were also heavily influenced by colonialism.

I am looking for the ancestors of the Munger family that left Punjab and came to the U.S. in 1963. The father was born in India in 1917. Is there a group that can help me know where to look for his birth and marriage records. His children were also born in Punjab in the 1950's and 1960's.

@cliffwoolley1 ,

You may want to ask your question in a separate discussion post.

The link that Lina Lee posted is great. There are a lot of additional links on that page and it is very informative on how to do Indian Genealogy Research.

These were the ones I found most promising:

Also, do you have any information on their immigration in 1963? Have you searched immigration records? They often give an immense amount of information regarding where they traveled from, who a relative in their home country is, and where they last resided. If they applied for citizenship, that is an even greater wealth of information as well.
