It was removed from the PlayStore and AppStore servers of India. But PUBG Mobile said that whatever the security issues were raised in the app, they will improve those and bring it back again, that's why PUBG mobile brokeup its partnership with Tencent Gaming. Which gave a hope to the people that there are chances that it will be back.
While some users who already have the game installed or they didn't deleted it from thier devices, they were playing the game in some cases.
But from today i.e. 30-October-2020, neither PUBG Mobile nor the PUBG Mobile Lite will no longer work in India from today.
