<p style="margin-bottom:.0001pt;margin-left:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-top:0in;"><font face=Arial,sans-serif lang=EN-US style="font-size:10.0pt;line-height:12.0pt;">In planning
and performing our audit of the financial statements of The India Fund, Inc. (the
&#8220;Fund&#8221;) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021, in accordance with the
standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), we
considered the Fund&#8217;s internal control over financial reporting, including
controls over safeguarding securities, as a basis for designing our auditing
procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial
statements and to comply with the requirements of Form N-CEN, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund&#8217;s internal
control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.</font></p>

<p style="margin-bottom:.0001pt;margin-left:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-top:0in;"><font face=Arial,sans-serif lang=EN-US style="font-size:10.0pt;line-height:12.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin-bottom:10.0pt;margin-left:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-top:0in;"><font face=Arial,sans-serif lang=EN-US style="font-size:10.0pt;line-height:12.0pt;">Management of the Fund is responsible for establishing and
maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting. In fulfilling
this responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to
assess the expected benefits and related costs of controls. A company&#8217;s
internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide
reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the
preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. A company&#8217;s internal control over
financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to
the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly
reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2)
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to
permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the
company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and
directors of the Fund and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention
or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the
company&#8217;s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
</font></p>

<p style="margin-bottom:10.0pt;margin-left:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-top:0in;"><font face=Arial,sans-serif lang=EN-US style="font-size:10.0pt;line-height:12.0pt;">Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over
financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections
of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk
that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the
degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. </font></p>

<p style="margin-bottom:10.0pt;margin-left:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-top:0in;"><font face=Arial,sans-serif lang=EN-US style="font-size:10.0pt;line-height:12.0pt;">A deficiency in internal control over financial reporting
exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or
employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to
prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a
deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over
financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material
misstatement of the Fund&#8217;s annual or interim financial statements will not be
prevented or detected on a timely basis. </font></p>

<p style="margin-bottom:10.0pt;margin-left:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-top:0in;"><font face=Arial,sans-serif lang=EN-US style="font-size:10.0pt;line-height:12.0pt;">Our consideration of the Fund&#8217;s internal control over
financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the first
paragraph and would not necessarily disclose all deficiencies in internal
control that might be material weaknesses under standards established by the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). However, we noted no
deficiencies in the Fund&#8217;s internal control over financial reporting and its
operation, including controls over safeguarding securities that we consider to
be a material weakness as defined above as of December 31, 2021.</font></p>
