In theory you could except changing country settings is not a trivial process and is normally only done if you are truly relocating to a different country. The support article Change your Apple ID country or region - Apple Support describes how to change your country setting on everything using your Apple ID, and the requirements and results of doing this. For your purposes this is not a practical thing you can do. Rejoice in what you can get in India. Software licensing is on a country by country basis. If you want an app that is available in a different country, contact the developer and ask them to put it on your country's store.
