Proxies that are not revoked will be voted in accordance with the specifications thereon and, unless specified to the contrary, will be voted "FOR" each of the nominees for Director.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">The close of business on April 10, 2023 has been fixed as the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Meeting and at any adjournments or postponements thereof (the "Record Date").

To gain admittance, if you are a stockholder of record or a proxy holder of a stockholder of record, you must bring a form of personal identification to the Meeting, where your name will be verified against our stockholder list. If a broker or other nominee holds your shares and you plan to attend the Meeting, you should bring a recent brokerage statement showing your ownership of the shares, as well as a form of personal identification. If you are a beneficial owner and plan to vote at the Meeting, you should also bring a proxy card from your broker.</p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt; text-align: center;"><font style="font-size: 11pt;"><b>PROPOSAL 1. ELECTION OF DIRECTORS</b></font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 2pt 0pt;"><b>Background</b></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">In accordance with the Fund's Articles of Amendment and Restatement, the Board is divided into three classes: Class I, Class II and Class III. These staggered terms have the effect of limiting the ability of other entities or persons to acquire control of the Fund by delaying the replacement of a majority of the Board and could have the effect of depriving stockholders of an opportunity to sell their shares at a premium over prevailing market prices by discouraging a third party from seeking to obtain control of the Fund.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">At the Meeting, stockholders will be asked to elect two Class II Directors, each to hold office until the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, or thereafter until their respective successors are elected and qualified. Mr. Luis F. Rubio and Ms. Nisha Kumar are the nominees for election as Class II Directors. Their qualifications are described in more detail below.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt; text-align: center;"><b><i>The Board, including the Independent Directors, recommends that stockholders vote "FOR" the nominees as Directors.</i></b></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt; text-align: center;"><font style="font-size: 11pt;"><b>PROPOSAL 2. CONTINUATION OF TERM FOR ONE DIRECTOR UNDER THE CORPORATE GOVERNANCE POLICIES</b></font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 2pt 0pt;"><b>Background</b></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">The Board has adopted Corporate Governance Policies which include a policy requiring that after an Independent Director has served on the Board for three consecutive terms of three years following the later of (a) engagement of the existing investment manager of the Fund or (b) the Independent Director's election to the Board, the Independent Director will be put forth for consideration by stockholders annually. Under the Corporate Governance Policies, Independent Directors currently serving on the Board will be submitted to stockholders for consideration of continuation as a director on an annual basis beginning at the first annual meeting following three complete consecutive terms following the later of the appointment of the Fund's then current investment manager or the initial election of the director by the Fund's stockholders, whichever is later. Jeswald W. Salacuse is to be put forth for consideration by stockholders annually pursuant to the Corporate Governance Policies. It is anticipated that Luis F. Rubio, up for election at the Meeting as a Class II Director under Proposal 1, will be up for election again at the Fund's next Annual Meeting of Stockholders pursuant to the Corporate Governance Policies.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">The Board, including the Independent Directors, upon the recommendation of the Board's Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee ("Nominating Committee"), which is composed entirely of Independent Directors, recommends the continuation of Jeswald W. Salacuse as a Director until the 2024 Annual Meeting.</p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">If Proposal 2 is not approved by Fund stockholders, the applicable director will be deemed to have tendered his or her resignation for consideration by the Board. The Board shall act on the resignation, taking into account the Nominating Committee's recommendation, and shall publicly disclose its decision and the rationale behind it within 90 days from the date of the certification of the voting results. Notably, the Director nominee would not participate in the Nominating Committee's recommendation or the Board's decision with respect to his own resignation.</p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><b>The persons named in the accompanying form of proxy intend to vote at the Meeting (unless directed not to vote) FOR the election of the nominees listed below.</b> The nominees have consented to their being named in this proxy statement and have indicated that they will serve if elected.

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">As of October 31, 2022, the holdings of no Director or executive officer, nor the Directors and executive officers of the Fund as a group, represented more than 1% of the outstanding shares of the Fund's common stock. At October 31, 2022, no Director or nominee for election as Director who is not an "interested person" of the Fund as defined in the 1940 Act, nor any immediate family member of such persons, owned beneficially or of record any shares of abrdn Asia Limited (formerly, Aberdeen Standard Investments (Asia) Limited and Aberdeen Asset Management Asia Limited) ("abrdn Asia"), the Fund's investment manager, or any person or entity (other than the Fund) directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with abrdn Asia.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 2pt 0pt;"><b>Responsibilities of the Board of Directors</b></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">The Board of Directors is responsible under applicable state law for overseeing generally the operation of the Fund. The Directors oversee the Fund's operations by, among other things, meeting at regularly scheduled meetings and as otherwise needed with the Fund's management and evaluating the performance of the Fund's service providers including abrdn Asia, the Fund's custodian, and the transfer agent. As part of this process, the Directors consult with the Fund's independent registered public accounting firm, and the directors who are not considered to be "interested persons" of the Fund, as defined in the 1940 Act ("Independent Directors"), consult with their own separate independent counsel.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">The Directors regularly review the Fund's financial statements, performance and market price as well as the quality of the services being provided to the Fund. As part of this process, the Directors review the Fund's fees and expenses to determine if they are reasonable and competitive in light of the services being received, while also ensuring that the Fund continues to have access to high quality services in the future.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">Based on these reviews, the Directors periodically make suggestions to the Fund's management and monitor to ensure that responsive action is taken. The Directors also monitor potential conflicts of interest among the Fund, abrdn Asia and its affiliates and other funds and clients managed by abrdn Asia with the objective that the Fund will be managed in a manner that is in the best interest of the Fund's stockholders.</p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 2pt 0pt;"><b>Audit Committee</b></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">The Audit Committee is composed entirely of Directors who are not "interested persons" of the Fund, abrdn Asia or its affiliates within the meaning of the 1940 Act, and who are "independent" as defined in the NYSE listing standards. Currently, Mr. Salacuse is the Chair and Mr. Rubio and Mses. Kumar and Maasbach are members of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee convened three times during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The principal functions of the Audit Committee are to appoint and retain the Fund's independent registered public accounting firm, to review with the independent registered public accounting firm the scope, performance and anticipated cost of their audit and to receive and consider a report from the independent registered public accounting firm concerning their conduct of the audit, including the form of the opinion proposed to be rendered, and any comments or recommendations the independent registered public accounting firm might want to make in that connection. The Board has determined that Ms. Kumar is an "audit committee financial expert," as defined in Section 401(h) of Regulation S-K. The Audit Committee Charter states that no member of the Audit Committee may serve on the audit committees of more than three public companies, including the Fund, unless the Board of Directors determines that such simultaneous service would not impair the ability of such member to serve on the Audit Committee effectively. For purposes of this determination, service on multiple audit committees within the same fund complex is counted as service on a single audit committee. The Fund's amended and restated Audit Committee Charter is available on the Fund's website at <font style="text-decoration:underline">www.abrdnifn.com</font>.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">The members of the Audit Committee are not professionally engaged in the practice of auditing or accounting and are not employed by the Fund for accounting, financial management or internal control. Moreover, the Audit Committee relies on and makes no independent verification of the facts presented to it or representations made by management or the independent registered public accounting firm. Accordingly, the Audit Committee's oversight does not provide an independent basis to determine that management has maintained appropriate accounting and financial reporting principles and policies, or internal controls and procedures, designed to assure compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations. Furthermore, the Audit Committee's considerations and </p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">discussions referred to above do not provide assurance that the audit of the Fund's financial statements has been carried out in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards or that the financial statements are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">Pursuant to the Fund's Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy, the Audit Committee pre-approved all audit and non-audit services provided by KPMG LLP ("KPMG"), the Fund's independent registered public accounting firm, to the Fund in 2022. As set forth in the Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies, the Audit Committee has authorized the Chair of the Audit Committee to pre-approve certain services to be performed by KPMG, as necessary, between Audit Committee meetings which would then be presented to the full Audit Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting. Representatives from KPMG are not expected to be present at the Meeting to make a statement or respond to questions from shareholders. If requested by any shareholder by two (2) business days before the Meeting, a representative from KPMG will be present by telephone at the Meeting to respond to appropriate questions and will have an opportunity to make a statement if he or she chooses to do so.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 2pt 0pt;"><b>Nominating Committee</b></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">The Nominating Committee is composed entirely of Directors who are not "interested persons" of the Fund, abrdn Asia or its affiliates within the meaning of the 1940 Act and who are "independent" as defined in the NYSE listing standards. Currently, Mr. Salacuse is the Chair and Mr. Rubio and Mses. Kumar and Maasbach are members of the Nominating Committee. This Committee met one time during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The principal function of the Nominating Committee is to select and nominate persons for election as Directors of the Fund. The Nominating Committee Charter is available on the Fund's website at <font style="text-decoration:underline">www.abrdnifn.com</font>.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">The Nominating Committee identifies potential nominees through its network of contacts. While the Nominating Committee meets to discuss and consider such candidates' qualifications and then chooses a candidate by majority vote, the Nominating Committee does not have specific, minimum qualifications for nominees and has not established specific qualities or skills that it regards as necessary for one or more of the Fund's Directors to possess (other than any qualities or skills that may be required by applicable law, regulation or listing standard).</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">In identifying and evaluating nominees, the Nominating Committee considers factors it deems relevant, which include: whether or not the person is an "interested person" as defined in the 1940 Act and whether the person is otherwise qualified under applicable laws and regulations to serve on the Board of Directors of the Fund; whether or not the person has any relationship that might impair his or her independence, such as any business, financial or family relationships with Fund management, the investment manager of the Fund, Fund service providers or their affiliates; whether or not the person serves on boards of, or is otherwise affiliated with, competing organizations or funds; and the character and integrity of the person and the contribution which the person can make to the Board. The Nominating Committee does not have a formal diversity policy but may also consider diversity of professional experience, education and skills when evaluating potential nominees. The Nominating Committee will accept nominations for the office of Director made by Fund stockholders. Stockholders who wish to recommend a nominee should send nominations to the Secretary of the Fund which include biographical information and set forth the qualifications of the proposed nominee. There are no differences in the manner in which the Nominating Committee evaluates nominees based on whether such nominees are recommended by a stockholder.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">The Fund does not pay a fee to any third party or parties to identify or evaluate or assist in identifying or evaluating potential nominees. The Nominating Committee did not receive a recommended nominee from a stockholder who beneficially owned, or a group of stockholders who beneficially owned, more than 5% of the Fund's shares for at least one year as of the date the recommendation to elect the Director nominees was made.</p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 2pt 0pt;"><b>Board Meetings</b></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, the Board of Directors held four regular meetings and one special meeting. Each Director attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Board or the committee(s) of the Board on which the Director served.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 2pt 0pt;"><b>Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports</b></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">Section 16(a) of the 1934 Act and Section 30(h) of the 1940 Act, as applied to the Fund, require the Fund's officers and Directors, certain officers and directors of the investment manager, affiliates of the investment manager, and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of the Fund's outstanding securities (collectively, the "Reporting Persons") to electronically file reports of ownership of the Fund's securities and changes in such ownership with the SEC and the NYSE.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">Based solely on the Fund's review of such forms filed on EDGAR or written representations from Reporting Persons that all reportable transactions were reported, to the knowledge of the Fund, during the fiscal period ended December 31, 2022, the Fund's Reporting Persons timely filed all reports they were required to file under Section 16(a), except that: (i) a late Form 3 filing was submitted for Ai Hua Aik following her appointment as a director of the Fund's investment manager; and (ii) a late Form 4 filing was submitted for Alan Goodson, a Director of the Fund, with respect to an open-market purchase of Fund shares.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 2pt 0pt;"><b>Report of the Audit Committee</b></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">The Audit Committee reports that it has: (i) reviewed and discussed the Fund's audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 with management; and (ii) discussed with KPMG, the Fund's independent registered public accounting firm, the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") and the SEC.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">The Audit Committee also reports that it previously received (i) written confirmation from KPMG that it is independent and (ii) written disclosures regarding such independence as required by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Rule 3526 and discussed with KPMG the independent registered public accounting firm's independence. In addition, the Audit Committee has reviewed the aggregate fees billed by KPMG for professional services rendered to the Fund and for non-audit services provided to: abrdn Asia, the Fund's investment manager, and any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with abrdn Asia that provided services to the Fund. As part of this review, the Audit Committee considered, in addition to other practices and requirements relating to selection of the Fund's independent registered public accounting firm, whether the provision of such non-audit services was compatible with maintaining the independence of KPMG.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">Based on the foregoing review and discussions, the Audit Committee presents this report to the Board and recommends that the Fund's audited financial statements be included in the Fund's annual report to stockholders for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 and filed with the SEC.</p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 2pt 0pt;"><b>Required Vote</b></p>

A "majority of the votes" cast means that the number of shares voted "FOR" a Director must exceed the number of votes cast "AGAINST" that Director.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">Please note that unless otherwise instructed, the proxies will vote "FOR" each nominee for Director.</p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 2pt 0pt;"><b>Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm</b></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">The Audit Committee has adopted written policies relating to the pre-approval of the audit and non-audit services performed by the Fund's independent registered public accounting firm. Unless a type of service to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm has received general pre-approval, it requires specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee. Under the policies, on an annual basis, the Audit Committee reviews and pre-approves the services to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm. In addition, the Audit Committee pre-approves any permitted non-audit services to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm to abrdn Asia or any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with abrdn Asia if such services relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund. As set forth in the Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies, the Audit Committee has authorized the Chair of the Audit Committee to pre-approve certain services to be performed by KPMG, as necessary, between audit committee meetings which would then be presented to the full Audit Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting.</p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><i>Tax Fees. </i>The aggregate fees paid for domestic and international tax-related services, including tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning, rendered to the Fund by KPMG for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were $0 and $8,880, respectively.</p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><i>All Other Fees. </i>The aggregate non-audit fees billed by KPMG for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 for services rendered to the Fund, abrdn Asia, the Fund's investment manager, and any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Fund or abrdn Asia that provided ongoing services to the Fund were $1,108,929 and $1,556,436, respectively. The Audit Committee has determined that the provision of non-audit services is compatible with maintaining the independence of KPMG.</p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">The Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to abrdn Asia and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with abrdn Asia that provides ongoing services to the Fund that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant's independence and has concluded that it is independent.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 2pt 0pt;"><b>Other Business</b></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">The Fund's Board of Directors does not know of any other matter that may come before the Meeting. If any other matter properly comes before the Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the proxy to vote the proxies in accordance with their judgment on that matter.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 2pt 0pt;"><b>Stockholder Proposals</b></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">All proposals by stockholders of the Fund that are intended to be presented at the Fund's next Annual Meeting of Stockholders, to be held in 2024, must be received by the Fund (addressed to The India Fund, Inc., 1900 Market Street, Suite 200, Philadelphia, PA 19103) in order to be considered for inclusion in the Fund's proxy statement and proxy relating to that meeting no later than December 17, 2023. Any stockholder who desires to bring a proposal for consideration at the Fund's 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders without including such proposal in the Fund's proxy statement must deliver written notice thereof to the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Fund (addressed to The India Fund, Inc., 1900 Market Street, Suite 200, Philadelphia, PA 19103) during the period from January 25, 2024 to February 24, 2024. However, if the Fund's 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders is held earlier than April 25, 2024 or later than July 24, 2024, such written notice must be delivered to the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Fund no earlier than 120 days before the date of the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and no later than the later of 90 days before the date of the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders or 10 days following the public announcement of the date of the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">Any stockholder proposal intended to be included in the Fund's proxy statement, including any accompanying supporting statement, may not exceed 500 words. There are additional requirements regarding proposals of stockholders, and a stockholder contemplating submission of a proposal is referred to Rule 14a-8 promulgated under the 1934 Act and Section 4(b) of the By-Laws of the Fund. The timely submission of a proposal does not guarantee its inclusion in a Fund's proxy materials.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 2pt 0pt;"><b>Stockholder Communications with the Board of Directors</b></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">The Fund has adopted procedures by which Fund stockholders may send communications to the Board. Stockholders may mail written communications to the Board to the attention of Directors of The India Fund, Inc., c/o the Fund's Chief Legal Officer, 1900 Market Street, Suite 200, Philadelphia, PA 19103. Stockholder communications must (i) be in writing and be signed by the stockholder and (ii) identify the number of shares held by the stockholder. The Chief Legal Officer of the Fund is responsible for reviewing properly submitted stockholder communications. The Chief Legal Officer shall either (i) provide a copy of each properly submitted stockholder communication to the Board at its next regularly scheduled board meeting or (ii) if the Chief Legal Officer determines that the communication requires more immediate attention, forward the communication to the Directors </p>
</div><div style="margin:8pt 0pt 8pt 0pt;">
 &#xa0;</div><p style="text-align: center;"><br>20</p><hr style="height: 1px; width: 100%; border: 1px solid gray; background-color: gray; text-align: center;"><div style="page-break-before:always;">&#xa0;&#xa0;</div><div style="margin:8pt 0pt 8pt 0pt;">
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">promptly after receipt. The Chief Legal Officer may, in good faith, determine that a stockholder communication should not be provided to the Board because it does not reasonably relate to the Fund or its operations, management, activities, policies, service providers, Board, officers, stockholders or other matters relating to an investment in the Fund or is otherwise ministerial in nature. These procedures shall not apply to (i) any communication from an officer or Director of the Fund, (ii) any communication from an employee or agent of the Fund, unless such communication is made solely in such employee's or agent's capacity as a stockholder of the Fund, or (iii) any stockholder proposal submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the 1934 Act or any communication made in connection with such a proposal.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">The Fund does not have a formal policy regarding attendance by Directors at Annual Meetings of Stockholders. No Directors attended the 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 2pt 0pt;"><b>Expenses of Proxy Solicitation</b></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">The costs of preparing, printing, assembling and mailing material in connection with this solicitation of proxies will be borne by the Fund, even if the proposals are not successful, as will all of the other costs in connection with the Meeting. <b>Proxies may also be solicited personally by Directors and officers of the Fund, by employees of the Fund's transfer agent, and by regular employees of abrdn Asia, its respective affiliates or other representatives of the Fund, and may be accomplished by telephone in addition to the use of mails.</b> Brokerage houses, banks and other fiduciaries may be requested to forward proxy solicitation material to their principals to obtain authorization for the execution of proxies, and they will be reimbursed by the Fund for out-of-pocket expenses so incurred.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">In addition, Georgeson LLC ("Georgeson"), a proxy solicitation firm, has been retained to assist in the solicitation of the proxy vote. It is anticipated that Georgeson will be paid an amount estimated at $2,000 plus reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. Therefore, expenses of the Meeting will include costs of (i) preparing, assembling and mailing material in connection with the solicitation, (ii) soliciting proxies by officers or employees, personally or by telephone or telegraph, (iii) reimbursing brokerage houses, banks and other fiduciaries and (iv) compensating the proxy solicitor.</p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;">Georgeson may call stockholders to ask if they would be willing to have their votes recorded by telephone. The telephone voting procedure is designed to authenticate stockholders' identities, to allow stockholders to authorize the voting of their shares in accordance with their instructions and to confirm that their instructions have been recorded properly. A stockholder voting by telephone would be asked for his or her social security number or other identifying information and would be given an opportunity to authorize proxies to vote his or her shares in accordance with his or her instructions. To ensure that the stockholder's instructions have been recorded correctly, he or she will receive a confirmation of such instructions in the mail. The confirmation is a replica of the proxy card, but with marks indicating how the stockholder voted, along with a special toll-free number which will be available in the event the stockholder wishes to change or revoke the vote. Although a stockholder's vote may be taken by telephone, each stockholder will receive a copy of this proxy statement and may vote by mailing the enclosed proxy card. If you have any questions or need assistance in voting, please contact Georgeson at its toll-free number, 1-866-682-6148.</p>
