The Bible does not mentions Indians. It does however, provide (in Gen 10-11) the 'Table of Nations' from which all people on the Earth today are descended.

The table starts with Noah (after the flood) and his three sons: Shem, Ham and Japheth. This list deals with any real specificity on only those people in and around Israel. If you assume that Indians are a mix of the Arab people and Africans, you would then conclude that Indians are descended from Shem and Ham. However, since you can not make these assumptions with any real clarity, this would only be a guess.

The Bible never mentions Indians, so we do not have a biblical myth concerning their origins or descent.
