In brief
This concerns a non-citizen’s local residence permission. A permanent residence card is not citizenship. Georgia has its own rules: do not import EU free-movement or another country’s absence rules.

Next stepSeparate work, investment, family and permanent residence permissions using SDA guidance. Investment permission and its ongoing conditions require their own review.
Ask about prolonged India absence
Request the current termination and absence rules under the Aliens Law for your exact permission. The selected English law version is not verified as the latest text.
Preserve the qualifying basis
If relying on employment, property/investment or a family link, ask SDA which evidence must continue after departure. Holding a card alone should not be treated as satisfying those conditions.
Confirm renewal and future entry
Ask SDA or the Public Service Hall about remote services, card renewal and entry documents. Obtain written confirmation before assuming that a future visit preserves permanent status.
