Strategy []
The first thing that you are gonna want to do as India is attack Pakistan in order to form Bharat. This can be done relatively quickly as you will outnumber Pakistan with your armies easily. After dealing with Pakistan you should be able to get a land border with Iran, which will open up future conquests in the Middle East, and if you formed Bharat you should now have a permanent claims on the entire countries of Nepal, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka. You should be able to full annex them easily, but when dealing with Nepal, do not attack their armies in the mountains otherwise you will suffer very heavy causalities and Pyrrhic victories.
Dealing with China[]
Now given that you are India, your biggest threat is going to be China. You can expand eastwards into Myanmar, Laos, and other SE Asian countries with no problem, but China will take your aggression very seriously. Russia will make a great ally and will make China think twice before attacking; and with Russian support expanding into China will be an easier task because China will be forced to fight 2 different fronts. It is also possible that China will not rival you and will be friendly at the start of a campaign.
Expanding into the Middle East[]
Carving your way through Iran into the Middle East will give you a very large area of expansion. Allying Turkey and/or Egypt will help you take out any Middle Eastern nation that gets in your way AND will help ensure that the Turks and/or the Egyptians will not form or join a coalition against you. It's likely they will break their alliances with you once you begin to border their countries, probably due to desired provinces and your AE. This gives you the opportunity to attack Egypt and expand into Africa, and attack Turkey and expand into Europe.
