According to the post, the visa is valid from September 23, 2025, to September 22, 2030, marking a full five-year stay authorisation. Louis received a B-1 business visa, which allows foreign nationals to visit India for conferences, meetings, or professional engagements in sectors such as technology and innovation.

His post quickly gained traction, with users applauding India’s efforts to attract international expertise in blockchain and artificial intelligence. One commenter wrote, “As someone who studies and works alongside many brilliant Indians in top US universities, I can confidently say India has some of the smartest minds in tech, AI, and engineering. If they keep building at home, global dominance is inevitable we’ll see Indian tech giants in the next decade.”

Another user joked, “First time seeing an Indian visa flex... Iss se acche din aur kya chahiye bhai?”
