Russia post the war will be weaker no matter the outcome. That would mean a resurgent China.

To counteract China, that is going to push India further into the western camp - and fast

China occupies Indian territory (captured in 1962) and claim more

You guys write great fiction. The opposite has occured in real life. India has moved solidly to the BRICS camp in the past year. India is another country you need to regime change. The list is getting long, I'm starting to lose track.

“in part because of America’s support of Pakistan”

That has been one of the consistently dumbest aspects of U.S. foreign policy since Nixon. It has NEVER gained us a real friend in Pakistan nor incemtivised Pakistan against cooperation with the CCP. it was Pakistan via China that taught North Korea how to develope its nukes. Pakistan has pretended to be “on our side” for one reason and one reason only - U.S. military aid and U.S. military sales.

One thing India does have is people. It would make good sense for the Russians to hire 10,000 Indian vets as mercenaries and send them to fight in the Ukraine.
