Paper work wise it is easier to go from Europe to India. You also go from expensive to cheap (better for budgeting) and from well behaved traffic to worse traffic behaviour (to western eyes).
Any reason not to go the other way?
----------------------------
The blue bar thingys at the top of the page give lots of background information if your just starting out ... 'Get Ready' 'Carnet de Passage explained' is one .. Have you read it?
Paperwork | Horizons Unlimited
In particular 1/3rd the way down that page
" under no circumstances can a carnet be issued outside India for a vehicle purchased in India bearing Indian registration plates."
Regarding Enfields and riding one home (wherever that may be) from India - just go to Nepal, it is perfectly legal to buy a bike and get a carnet for a Nepalese Enfield. They are somewhat more expensive in Nepal, but at least it's legally possible.
Just read the whole thing .. that will get you some understanding.
If your read all the blue bar thingys .. it will answer questions you have not thought of yet... they are there to provide that information without answering it for each newly arrived person individually, saving a lot of work.
