India Passport Size Photo requirements
Passport Seva asks for a 35 × 45 mm colour photo on a white background, where the face takes up 80–85% of the photo. That works out to a head height of about 36–38 mm from chin to top of head. OCI applications use a square 2 × 2 inch (51 × 51 mm) photo instead, and PAN card forms use the smaller 25 × 35 mm stamp size. Source: official guidance.
