Australia–India relations are foreign relations between Republic of India and Commonwealth of Australia. Before independence Australia and India were both part of the British Empire and as a result share common linguistic ties; both are part of the Commonwealth of Nations. One of the prominent ties is a shared love of cricket which has sometimes been controversial.

After World War II, the Australian government of Ben Chifley supported the independence of India from the United Kingdom.

In 2007 Dr Mohamed Haneef, an India Citizen, was detained and his visa cancelled in Australia after it was found that he was the cousin of two terrorists arrested in UK. The Australian Federal Court criticized Australian Immigration Minister for his conduct. The Government of India and Human Rights Commission were concerned for the unjust treatment of Dr Haneef and as such Australia's High Commissioner was summoned to Ministry of External Affairs in New Delhi. Ultimately Dr Haneef won both cases against the Government of Australia, his visa was restored and he was cleared of any links to terrorism.

In 2009 relations were strainedbetween the two nations by the attacks on Indian students, termed "curry bashings", in Australia Police had denied any racial motivation but this was viewed differently by the government in India and students in Australia, leading to high-level meetings with Australian officials. As a result of this, the largest trade union in Bollywood has placed a ban on filming in Australia until the matter is settled by Australia. There were also calls in the Indian community to apply a travel ban on Australia These attacks are creating a stereotyped image of a racist Australia in India.

On July 26th, an Indian scribe was attacked in Australia when she tried to gather evidences of Visa scams in the country. The government of India already frustrated with these attacks on its nationals, summoned a report and actions by competent authorities.

India has conducted a joint naval exercise in Indian Ocean with USA, Japan and Australia, termed Malabar 2007, and has had bilateral military exchanges with all of these except Australia.. India had almost negotiated a deal to buy Australian uranium during John Howard's term, until the new Australian Labor Party Government barred Australian companies from selling uranium to India causing some tension between the two nations..
