Well, now that I have clicked the (Timatic/IATA) link, it says specifically: "- passengers with an Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) card or booklet;". Appears to be a blanket statement for *all* OCIs.

Other MHA edicts I have seen do not allow all...

See the latest rulings (as what I could find): https://boi.gov.in/content/advisory-...ted-covid-19-1
THank you for this! Your link which ends in "19-1" seems to be the latest update.

The restrictions on OCI travel TO India still remain as written on that page.
Quoting That website:
"4. Visa free travel facility granted to OCI card holders, has been kept in abeyance till prohibition on international travel of passengers from/to India is lifted by the Government of India. Any foreign national (including OCI cardholder) who intends to travel to India for compelling reasons may contact the nearest Indian Mission for fresh visa. (Vide MHA OM No. F.NO.26011/Misc./83/2020-OCI dated 5th May, 2020)."

Hopefully something will change soon. And OCIs can go IN to India without restrictions (but following quarantine guidelines, etc).
