Sir/Madam
If you prove that your father's grand father was born in French India, your father may be a french citizen.
Even then, according to Mr Maisonneuve, Director of Affaires civiles and Sceau (office of the nationality, your father has to adduce evidence about his possession d'etat de francais (Ref.article 30-2 of Code civil). Yours sincerely

Your mother born in Mahe in 1944 was a minor on 16.08.1962 date of transfer de jure of French India into Indian Union.She could not make option to conserve french nationality,I think you are aware of the effects of the franco indian treaty 1956 on your mother and her father, If your mother's father was a french citizens born also in Fr. India, he had to make option in writing to conserve the french nationality for him and for his mioor daughter ie, mother. If he was born in British India he was exempted to make option. For more details I am at your disposl. It is better to contact me either in my office or thro my cell phone, Yours sincerely
