EXHIBIT A:
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
of The India Fund, Inc.

In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements
of The India Fund, Inc.(the "Company") for the year ended
December 31, 2004, we considered its internal control, including
control activities for safeguarding securities, in order to
determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing
our opinion on the financial statements and to comply with the
requirements of Form N-SAR, not to provide assurance on internal
control.

The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and
maintaining internal control.  In fulfilling this responsibility,
estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the
expected benefits and related costs of controls.  Generally,
controls that are relevant to an audit pertain to the entity's
objective of preparing financial statements for external purposes
that are fairly presented in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.  Those controls include the safeguarding
of assets against unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition.

Because of inherent limitations in internal control, errors or
fraud may occur and not be detected.  Also, projection of any
evaluation of internal control to future periods is subject to
the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes
in conditions or that the effectiveness of their design and
operation may deteriorate.

Our consideration of internal control would not necessarily
disclose all matters in internal control that might be material
weaknesses under standards established by the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  A material weakness,
for purposes of this report, is a condition in which the design
or operation of one or more of the internal control components
does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that
misstatements caused by error or fraud in amounts that would be
material in relation to the financial statements being audited
may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees
in the normal course of performing their assigned functions.
However, we noted no matters involving internal control and its
operation, including controls for safeguarding securities, that
we consider to be material weaknesses as defined above as of
December 31, 2004.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of the
Board of Directors, management and the Securities and Exchange
Commission and is not intended to be and should not be used by
anyone other than these specified parties.

Dear Sirs:

This will confirm that the amended and restated
agreement among the undersigned (the "Investment Manager") and
you (the "Country Adviser") is as follows:
1.	The Investment Manager has been employed pursuant
to an amended and restated management agreement dated and
effective as of October 26, 2004 between an investment company
(the "Company") registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), and the Investment Manager
(the "Management Agreement").  The Company engages in the
business of investing and reinvesting its assets in the manner
and in accordance with the investment objective and limitations
specified in the Company's articles of incorporation, as amended
from time to time in the registration statement on Form N-2, as
in effect from time to time, and in such manner and to such
extent as may from time to time be authorized by the Board of
Directors of the Company.  Copies of the documents referred to
in the preceding sentence have been furnished to the Country
Adviser.  Any amendments to these documents shall be furnished
to the Country Adviser.
2.	Subject to the approval by the Company, the
Investment Manager engages the Country Adviser on an independent
contractor relationship basis to: (a) provide and procure
statistical and factual information and research regarding
economic and political factors and trends in India and its
surrounding region and (b) provide or procure research and
statistical data in relation to investing and other
opportunities in India and its surrounding region.  The Country
Adviser will not make any investment decisions with respect to
the Company.
3.	The Country Adviser shall, at its expense,
provide office space, office facilities and personnel reasonably
necessary for performance by it of the services to be provided
by the Country Adviser pursuant to this Agreement.
4.	The Country Adviser may contract on its own
behalf with or consult with such banks, other securities firms,
brokers or other parties without additional expense to the
Company, as it may deem appropriate regarding research and
statistical data or otherwise.
5.	In consideration of the services to be rendered
by the Country Adviser under this Agreement, the Investment
Manager shall pay the Country Adviser a monthly fee in United
States dollars on the fifth business day of each month for the
previous month at an annual rate of 0.10% of the Fund's average
weekly net assets.  If the fee payable to the Investment Adviser
pursuant to this paragraph 5 begins to accrue before the end of
any month or if this Agreement terminates before the end of any
month, the fee for the period from such date to the end of such
month or from the beginning of such month to the date of
termination, as the case may be, shall be prorated according to
the proportion which such period bears to the full month in
which such effectiveness or termination occurs.
6.	The Country Adviser represents and warrants that
it will be duly registered and authorized as an investment
adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended
(the "Advisers Act"), and the Country Adviser agrees to maintain
effective all requisite registrations, authorizations and
licenses, as the case may be, until termination of this
Agreement.
7.	This Agreement shall continue in effect until
June 4, 2005 and shall continue in effect thereafter for
successive annual periods, provided that such continuance is
specifically approved at least annually (a) by the vote of a
majority of the Company's outstanding voting securities (as
defined in the 1940 Act) or by the Company's Board of Directors
and (b) by the vote, cast in person at a meeting called for the
purpose, of a majority of the Company's directors who are not
parties to this Agreement or "interested persons" (as defined in
the 1940 Act) of any such party. Notwithstanding the above, this
Agreement (a) may nevertheless be terminated at any time,
without penalty, by the Company's Board of Directors, by vote of
holders of a majority of the outstanding voting securities (as
defined in the 1940 Act) of the Company or by the Investment
Manager upon 60 days' written notice delivered to each party
hereto and (b) shall automatically be terminated in the event of
its assignment (as defined in the 1940 Act).  Any such notice
shall be deemed given when received by the addressee.
8.	Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit or
restrict the right of the Country Adviser, any affiliate of the
Country Adviser or any employee of the Country Adviser to engage
in any other business or to devote time and attention to the
management or other aspects of any other business, whether of a
similar or dissimilar nature, or to render services of any kind
to any other corporation, firm, individual or association.
Nothing herein shall be construed as constituting the Country
Adviser an agent of the Investment Manager or the Company.
9.	This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of
the State of New York; provided, however, that nothing herein
shall be construed as being inconsistent with the 1940 Act.
10.	Notices.  Any notice hereunder shall be in
writing and shall be delivered in person or by telex or
facsimile (followed by delivery in person) to the parties at the
