I assume you want Asian Indian, not American Indian.
R.K. Narayan*, Salman Rushdie*, Bharati Mukherjee*, Vikram Seth*, Anita Desai*, Kiran Desai*, Bapsi Sidhwa, Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni, Raj Kamal Jha, Jhumpa Lahiri*, Bharti Kirchner, Prakash Kona, Rohinton Mistry*, Moncy Pothen, Shashi Tharoor, Amitav Ghosh, V.S. Naipaul*, David Davidar.
I starred the ones I think are best known. These are only Indian writers who write in English.

There are several, but I recommend Vikram Seth and Kiran Desai. Desai was a 2006 finalist for the Man Booker Prize for "The Inheritance of Loss" - an excellent book.
Salman Rushdie is probably the most famous (or infamous) of contemporary Indian authors, because the Ayatollah put a contract out on his head. His books are very good as well.

Rabindranath Tagore. He's an Indian author and I found his stories interesting. I can't remember the titles of his literary works but his are one of the few I enjoyed reading in my Asian Literature class during my high school days.

Arundhati Roy - fascinating writer, captures culture, romance and adventure beautifully into one amazing story.
