Students admitted to study in an Indian institution need to provide a letter from their host institution ( in this case from Jagran Lakecity University) to secure a student visa. If you are applying for a tourist visa, it is important to note that the length of the visa starts from the day it is issued, not from the date of entry to India. For students not yet accepted to a school in India, a three-month provisional visa is available. In this case a letter from the host institution confirming that the student has applied is necessary to obtain a provisional visa.

It is important to note that Indian visas must be obtained prior to arrival in the country. Airlines will not let you check in without displaying one.
