Jewish history in India dates back to ancient times, possibly even to the days of Solomon\u2019s temple (1 Kings 10), with later references to the arrival of Jews during the time of St. Thomas in 52 A.D.

However, following the establishment of Israel in 1948, many made Aliyah (returned to Israel), leaving only a small community behind.
