Hi There
My husband, kids and I got Citizenship on 23 June 2010. My husband and kids moved back to India immediately after that because my husband is setting up his own business there. I am still here in london due to work commitments, planning to move back by the end of the year. I've applied for my british passport from here and am expecting to receive it in a week.
Grace period of three months is allowed from the date of acquisition of foreign citizenship for the purpose of travel on Indian passport. No penalty will be leviable for travel on Indian passport. Please follow this link for details.

Based on this my husband and kids went to India, now when he enquired about applying British passport from India and he is being told that he cannot apply because he needs visa to live in India as he is already a British citizen.
We are now in big confusion. Is there any way my husband and kids can apply for british passport (and then OCI) in India?
If yes, will there be any disadvantage if we apply from India?
Please suggest.
Thanks in advance
