Hi, I think Sharief has given a comprehensive list on the key institutes in India.
It is better to look at those few and examine the research areas.
Anyways, here is a link which will provide a long list of Oceanographic Institutes,
Organisations etc. in India and in some other countries, especially Asian/African.
