This is a list of alleged sightings of UFOs in India.
1951 In New Delhi, members of a flying club reported a cigar-shaped object in the sky.
2004 On 27 September 2004, a team of scientists in Samudra Tapu spotted a white object resembling a "snow man" on top of an adjacent mountain ridge. India Today speculated the UFO could be "a spy drone from across the border" or "a spy balloon".
2007 In October, a strange "fireball" was photographed in the skies of Kolkata. It was reported to be a shape-shifting anomaly.
2013 In June, residents in Chennai observed five specks of bright orange light in the night sky. In August, troops of the Indian Army spotted several UFOs near the Ladakh border.
2015
In Gorakhpur, Uttar Pradesh, a local resident claimed to have taken a photo of a large UFO. However, a rash of similar photos from other parts of the world depicting the appearance of a UFO similar to the one in the movie Independence Day were most likely "created using digital editing software or even a mobile phone app, as some on the market allow UFOs to be blended into pictures". In June, a boy from Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh, was using his father's phone to take photos of clouds when he reportedly captured an image of a flying saucer.
2023 In November, a UFO was spotted over Imphal Airport, which disrupted flight services for three hours. Two Indian Air Force Rafale fighter jets were scrambled from a nearby air base. The search yielded no result, and the unidentified objects were not seen again.
