A few examples of things you can't ever do in India:

Men should never touch women in public, even to help a woman out of a car, unless the lady is very elderly or infirm

In Indian culture... men socialise with men, and women with women

Married couples in Asia do not hug, hold hands or kiss in public. Even embracing at airports and train stations is considered out of the question

Generally it is improper for women to speak with strangers on the street and especially to strike up a casual conversation

Drinking alcohol or smoking in public, no matter how innocent, are interpreted as a sign of moral laxity and are not acceptable.
