As mentioned above, the set of records which comprises the FamilySearch transcribed India databases are now also available on [[Findmypast]], as searchable records with images.
To find out details of microfilms , most of which have now been digitised, use the '''[https://familysearch.org/catalog-search FamilySearch Library catalogue]''', or reach from the FS Home Page/Search/Catalog. Additionally there is now a Catalogue link on each Location page (introduced 2018/03). Those records which have been digitised contain a camera icon. Some digitised microfilms of Church registers in India are available to view on your home computer. However, if the microfilmed record originated at the British Library, the digitised microfilm must be viewed at a [[FamilySearch Centres|FamilySearch Centre]], or possibly at a Family Search Affiliate Library - check the details in the Catalogue entry for the microfilm number, but make sure you are previously signed in, as different information can be displayed depending on your sign in status. There is an alternative way of locating some (but not all) digitised microfilms, through FS Home Page/Search/Images. [https://www.familysearch.org/records/images/ Explore Historical Images] enables a Search by Place, or the Advanced Search includes more options including DGS number, (described below) but '''not''' by a person's name. The records available are those that may be viewed on home computers without any restriction, so excludes any records originating from the British Library.
You can view all online data at '''[[Family History Centres|FamilySearch Centres]] (also known as Family History Centres) (FHC)'''. Check whether you can book a computer at the FHC. A personal "Sign In", as above, is required at a FHC.
