If it's so easy why do Stripe themselves say "easy onboarding is a fundamental Stripe feature that we cannot promise in India today."
Stripe also flag that "the regulatory landscape in India continues to evolve" so any company investing in subscription solutions must expect further complications and costs.

I still think you're blaming the wrong party - the government that needs to be more consistent with global norms
Well, if I had any influence on Indian regulations,i would have got things fixed. It is what it is. When the regulations were introduced they broke all subscriptions for months. The govt didn't bother then, and years later rest of the companies operating in India have adapted.
Stripe never said what exactly caused them to stop accepting new Indian businesses but my guess is the increased number of failed integrations such as substack increased the rate of customer issues and failed transactions.
Even now, there is no sound from the govt here after stripe made this announcement.
It is not impossible to implement these things.
- Ask Indian writers to provide their business name to enable currency localisation.
- Store Indian data inside India
- Collect customer name and addresses for Indian publications.
