Yes, India is all about Maggi noodles. I will never forget being at the top of the Khardung La pass, at the time believed to be the world’s highest motorable pass at 5396m, and seeing a large information board in honour of Julius Michael Johannes Maggi, a Swiss food scientist who developed instant soups in the late 1800’s. Maggi instant noodles are at every roadside stall in the Indian Himalayas.

Just like my German grandmother.
Meanwhile across the border we are all about Knorr. Not sure why Maggi faltered, we used to have them but they somehow couldn't compete.
