TLDR : Answer Summary

As of now, Indian nationals cannot obtain a tourist visa for Thailand due to travel restrictions stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic. Thailand has implemented a ban on entry for travelers coming from India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh, with no clear timeline for when these restrictions may be lifted. Additionally, due to the lockdown, the Mumbai VFS office is closed, and applicants are advised to deal with the Kolkata office. However, given the current entry ban, applying for a visa at this time would not be beneficial.

Just stay in India because nobody can come to Thailand from there, for good reason.

Thailand currently has banned anyone coming from India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. There has been no timeline as to when that ban might be lifted.
