Accommodation

Keep your hotel card with you whenever going out of your hotel, so that you know the address and have the necessary contacts.
Check the phone in your room whether its working or not.
Keep your room locked when you are inside. If hotel staff wants to access in your room, ask them to do this when you are out. Moreover, you can wait at reception while they do the needful.
If you notice any staff acting suspiciously, or if you feel uncomfortable, inform your leader as soon as possible.
When out in public, avoid discussing the details of your travel plans with the people you meet.

Exploring

Walk with purpose and confidently. Don't be afraid to say no loudly in any situation you feel uncomfortable in.
You better shop in areas that are popular, well lit and busy. Avoid going into the backrooms of shops where you cannot see the streets.
In India, it is rare to see a local woman talking to a man she doesn't know. If you get too friendly with local men while talking can be misinterpreted. So it's better to strike up conversations with women while travelling to meet locals.
Try to explore during the day rather than in the night. Otherwise, make sure you don't need to travel alone back to your hotel in the night.
India is a conservative country. You should dress modestly, covering your shoulders and legs. Wear loose-fitting clothes. If swimming, remember to wear shorts and a t-shirt over the swimsuit.
In India, Indian women rarely drink in public. If you are drinking in public, make sure you are accompanied by your group members. Don't accept drinks from strangers or from people you don't know.
Don't do the things you would not do at your home. Explore the new experiences but with caution and awareness of the culture, you are in.
