INDIVIDUAL. The Arms Act, 1959 and the Arms Rules, 2016 ensure that self-defence weapons are available for all citizens under licence unless their antecedents or propensities do not entitle them for the privilege. An individual may obtain a firearm licence by following the procedure specified under the Arms Rules, 2016 ...
Arms Act of 1959 allows citizens of India to get Non-Prohibited Bore (NPB) guns. NPB licenses can be issued to anyone of Indian Nationality who can claim a licensee status under the following: Self Defence - Individuals who could be prone to being attacked for reasons including being wealthy, being under threat, etc.
Returning NRIs can obtain an Indian licence if they have possessed a firearm during their overseas residency for more than two years. 6. Foreign Nationals, under acceptable circumstances, can legally possess and carry firearms for up to six months during their stay in India.
Though India ranks second highest in gun ownership, when it comes to fire arm holdings per 100 residents, it doesn't feature anywhere among the top. Reason: India's huge population. America leads with an average 120 guns per 100 people. In India, the average is an estimated 5.9 guns per 100 people.
The concept of a Gun License in India comes under the Arms Act of 1959. Any citizen of India who wants to own a gun is allowed to buy only NPB guns. This act has the provision which allows civilians to get the authority to have a gun license in case they have a major threat to their life.
Federal law does not limit the number of guns a person may buy in any given time period.
Who can apply for a firearm licence? A South African citizen or a holder of a permanent South African residence permit.

Actually, the Arms Act Amendment of 2019, restricted the number of firearms a licensee can hold to two (earlier it was three). These Rules which came subsequently in 2020 were also amended to bring on par with the earlier amended Act.
