Visa- X visa

I'm no expert but if you read the new Citizenship (Amendment) Ordinance OCI 2015, it is quite clear that only if you, your parent, grandparent or great grandparent can prove Indian citizenship can you apply. So your mother obtaining an OCI will not help you. Which means the two year waiting period post marriage applies if qualifying for an OCI through an Indian spouse.

A word of caution too - if your Indian spouse passes away or you get divorced, you will lose your OCI and have to leave the country, even if you have children who are Indian citizens. The only alternative is if you qualify after living in India as an OCI for over a year and are willing to give up your Mauritius citizenship for Indian citizenship.

While not fair at least the X visa permits you and your spouse to live together - which is better than how some countries handle foreign national spouses.

So... looks like you have more frustration ahead unless you make this disadvantage an opportunity. Why not focus on furthering your studies? See if your spouse will help open a business in his name that you can run? Get involved with any and all activities that will longer term make your living in India more successful?
