Based on the information provided in the extracts, QuantConnect does not yet support the Indian market. The main obstacle to the Indian market is that they require humans to click the trade button, which is totally the opposite of what QuantConnect is about. You can refer to this forum discussion for more details.
As for the issue with reading data from the data folder, it's hard to provide a specific solution without seeing your code. However, it's important to note that any input file should be placed in the executable directory Lean/Launcher/bin/Debug. If you want to place it in the script location (Launcher/Algorithm.Python), you can use the relative path. For instance, if you want to read a name called data.csv, you need to write in the python script that it can be found at ../../../data.csv. You can refer to this forum discussion for more details.
If you're still having trouble, I would recommend posting your specific issue on the QuantConnect forum for more targeted assistance.

The directory
Lean/Launcher/bin/Debugis the location where the compiled files of the Lean engine are stored when you build the solution in Debug mode.When you compile or build the Lean project, the resulting executable files (
.dllfor C# or.pycfor Python) are stored in this directory. These files are what actually get executed when you run your algorithm.If you're using Visual Studio, you can build the solution by clicking
Build > Build All. After the build process, you can navigate to this directory and run the Lean engine with the following command:This command runs the Lean engine, which then executes your algorithm.
You can find more details in the Getting Started guide in the QuantConnect documentation.
