I checked with registering at a FRRO office in a big city but not getting a clear answer. Someone told me it normally takes 7 days just to register

If you're not intending to stay more than 180 days, you do not need to register at the FRRO (unless you're Pakistani or Afghani or some other edge case). I previously had a 6 month multiple entry visa. That was also stamped with the 'must register at FRRO' wording; but there is no such requirement unless planning to stay in India for the full duration.
