Arriving from Dallas to Bombay at 5 am and planning a separate ticket from Bombay at 7 pm to Lucknow. Can I check in luggage at the Indigo Bombay counter around 7 am?
This would free us up to do visit family for few hours and be back by 5 pm. Don't want to haul luggage so checking. Thank you in advance for sharing your experiences and advice!

You can't? The CISF security won't even let you into the terminal building until 4 or 5 hours before your flight.
You can try this luggage storage option https://csmia.adaniairports.com/left-luggage.aspx, maybe they can hold your luggage while you visit Mumbai.

Depending on how many people are in your travel party, it may be cheaper to hire a large car & driver for the day from one of the cab counters at the airport. This way you can leave your luggage in the car & not have to pay the per-bag luggage storage fee.

Thank you everyone for the suggestions and sharing experiences.
I forgot to mention the point that I would be arriving via an international flight from the US to Bombay at 5 am, and then I have a separate ticket from Bombay to Lucknow, which I decided to book next day's flight rather than same day, so I have a full day in Bombay. Will take all the luggage with me to my family's house where I'm visiting.
