Great, have updated the wiki -

and will change the values from county to district.

1. place=district makes sense. We should change this.
2. Looking at
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:boundary%3Dadministrative it seems
like admin_level=6 is a popular choice for a district level unit in the
other big countries, larger than India. Its a good idea to use 6 for
consistency.
Currently I see that we have tagged most of the Indian districts(more
than 300) with place=county[1] but this tag is mainly used on nodes
rather than on administrative boundaries ways that are tagged with
boundary=administrative.[2] But we have added administrative boundaries
for all districts
