Much like the US, it's going to devolve to fascism first, and by that point I can't imagine it becoming much of a superpower.
I feel like India is in a far better place than the US here because it has a militant communist movement. There are probably more serious communists in Kerala alone than there is in the whole of US.
Compared to how many militant fascists there are, they are hopelessly outnumbered. There are probably more fascist sympathizers in India than there are people in the entirety of the US. I would be optimistic if India was just another centrist liberal democracy, but the ruling government there is extremely reactionary and ethno-nationalist, and theres likely more chance of an Indonesia styled purge than there is of socialist revolution.
It's also possible, I guess we'll see how things develop there going forward.
