Indian here. This seems to be blown a bit out of proportion. I am residing in a Tier-1 city in India and have an internet connection with a local ISP. I am able to access the content on the supposed blocked domain, so this is probably one ISP proactively blocking the domain without it being formally asked to do so (court order can't be ISP-specific AFAIK).

I work in a large consultancy firm and have friends in other Indian IT consultancy firms. GitHub is very commonly used across these firms for quite large projects and blocking that domain would certainly slow down the work of thousands of employees across the country instantly. No way can this block be carried ahead.
