Homosexuality is not legal in India rather indulgence in unnatural sex is an offence under section 377 of Indian Penal Code which states Whoever voluntarily has carnal intercourse against the order of nature with any man, woman or animal, shall be punished with [imprisonment for life], or with imprisonment of either description for term which may extend to ten years, and shall also be liable to fine. Here against the order of nature includes anal, oral or any other form of penial insertion in the body part of another person or animal. Hence we can say very clearly that homosexuality is illegal in India. Although a matter challenging the provision of section 377 IPC as unconstitutional is still pending in the Supreme Court of India, but untill this section is held unconstitutional the offence under this section will remain & the act of homosexuality will to be held as illegal.

the Indian Penal Code classifies homosexual activities as being "unnatural and unusual" and hence, illegal
