Badly researched article. Bitcoin is not banned in India.
The article includes India just to get to a list of 10 countries.

Have you read the article?
I have been to India, and I know what is going on there. There is no
de jure Bitcoin ban as such, but there is a
de facto ban on all Bitcoin-related businesses. Almost all the Bitcoin-based business ventures operating in India has either closed down, or are planning to close as a result of this. As mentioned in the article, an example is BTCXIndia.
