you can't redeem wallet cards from other regions anymore, only thing that works is a digital gift card from the steam store, or physical wallet cards from your own region.

Your other option is READING! You have ignored the green box on the support page I gave you.

If you're trying to redeem wallet funds outside of the currency set on your account then it can't be done now.

Well, then you're SOL. Tip for the future: expect non-straightforward things to break anytime.

Having your Steam store region not match the region of the cards you're buying (so either you fake your store region or you get wallet cards from abroad) is a good example of something non-straightforward.

You don't need to move to the US. You just need to make sure that the following locations match
1. Where you actually are
2. Your Steam store setting
3. Your payment method

So stay in India, set your store location to India and buy IDR wallet cards (if IDR is Indian, if not, adjust accordingly).
