No. Although there is no law explicitly prohibiting it, same-sex marriage is not legal in India and same-sex marriage performed elsewhere is not recognized in India. Same-sex couples can have a Hindu wedding in India, but they cannot register their marriage with the government and they will not be considered legally married, despite the fact that a heterosexual couple doing the same thing are considered married. The majority of marriages in India are never registered with the state and marriage laws dictate that any two Hindus who marry according to the Hindu rite are legally married in India.

Until then, same-sex couples may obtain civil unions. Bills were introduced in the legislature to grant rights to same-sex couples, including one bill to permit Civil Unions in 2003. Although the bills have been defeated, the rights were nonetheless granted by the courts to same-sex couples on January 28, 2009.
