I imagine it might be kinda frustrating on a diplomatic level though that they're so on-the-fence. Not that I understand the diplomacy surrounding weapons trade very well, but judging from the stink that went up recently when Australia stopped purchasing submarines from France, I can only assume that this one of the most politically significant kinds of purchase going.
India is a promising ally to the west. They hate china and pakistan, good foot in the door for potential alliances.
I completely understand their usage of russian resources. Beggars cannot be choosers, especially when you have more people than China.
Most of their military hardware isnt domestically produced, its sourced second hand or from other second world countries.
India is in the middle of industrializing and that will still take time, get good with the politicians and the right investments and they would be a worthy cudgel in a fight. Granted they still have some internal issues to work out.
How would you rate India as a country?

Ah. Well, thankfully we're not at war with them.
