As stated, the requirement for seven days of mandatory home quarantine has been replaced with 14-day self-monitoring.
The requirement for a COVID-19 PCR test on the eighth day of arrival in India has also been removed.
In a statement, the ministry of health and family for India said: "The global and Indian growth trajectory of COVID-19 pandemic continues with regional variations.
"The need to monitor the continuously changing nature of virus and evolution of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOCs) thus, must still remain in focus.
"The extant guidelines for international arrivals in India continue being formulated taking a risk-based approach.
"While monitoring the nature and spread of infection in the country and across the globe, cognizance is also given to the fact that economic activities need to be taken up in an unhindered manner."
