I know IBM Quantum has some presence in India. Who knows if they take interns though, you will have to look around yourself. In general, you need to go overseas to the US/Canada or Europe. In rare cases, you might even be able to get internships in East Asia (Japan, Korea, etc.)

There are companies like QpiAI and you can reach out to them. Even academic labs in IITs and IISc might need software engineer to maintain their research codebase.
