India does not recognize the Taliban regime
Even if the Taliban government has registered for the crash course, India does not recognize its regime. To note, the Indian embassy was shut down in August 2021, two days after the militant group captured Kabul. However, it reopened in June 2022. Since then, the Taliban has asked New Delhi to restart some development projects that came to a halt during the takeover.
