Hi,
I have been living in India for the last 4 years and on my non-indian as
well as indian phone Osmand was regularly running, been updated and maps
downloaded and used.
Never had any issues with it at the airport/customs.
I have heard though, that the issue with some of the Garmin devices is
they communicate outside of India and some indian office did not issued
an approval for it, applies to some of their watches I vaguely remember.

Subject Availability of OSMAnd+ maps for India - while in India
Good morning,
I am an Australian contributor to OSMAnd+. My query is...can I
download OSMAnd+ maps of India while I am in India? Why? Last year I
was arrested at Kolkata Airport for having a Garmin 65S hand-held GPS
in my posession. I don't want to go through that hassle any more so it
would be better for me to delete the OSMAnd+ application and Indian
maps from my Lenovo Tablet before entering India, re-install the app
and maps in India and delete the lot again before exiting via the
airport security. Can I do this?
Thanks
Neville, Queensland, OZ.
