You’re not under any UK legal obligation to do anything, but from an Indian legal standpoint, especially given your travel plans, it would be unwise to ignore the documents without legal review. Given your frequent travel to India, you should not ignore this notice even if you’re not legally compelled to respond under UK law.

It’s best to engage legal counsel in India immediately to protect yourself from any unexpected consequences during future visits And if you accept the documents have them reviewed by an Indian lawyer to ascertain the magnitude of the situation.

However you must cooperate with investigation 

There's no contempt of court if you refuse to accept the documents.

You were informed that under UK law you are not obligated to comply with the process.

If this something related to any court proceedings but in the absence of any look out circular you will not be stopped at airport nor anyone will come to know about your visit to India if you are taken into custody at airport.

You can visit India without informing anyone about your visit and return immediately.

It is always better to know about the case that has been instituted against you to protect your interests.

If you are not implicated as an accused in the ongoing proceedings then you need not be worried about it.

Under UK law, you're not legally obliged to accept or act on Mutual Legal Assistance (MLA) documents if you're a British citizen. However, India may treat non-compliance as contempt of court, especially if you are named as a witness or have been summoned officially in relation to a sensitive extradition matter (like the Nirav Modi case).

If you refuse or ignore the documents, possible risks when visiting India could include:

• Being summoned by Indian courts

• Risk of non-bailable warrant if a court considers you deliberately evaded

• Possible arrest, detention, or travel restrictions within India

Recommendation: Accept the documents for transparency and consult an Indian legal expert before travel. Cooperating (even minimally) may reduce legal risk during future visits to India.
