PS Portal Cloud Streaming: Not Available In India For Now
Unfortunately, this feature will not be available in India. The PlayStation Plus Premium plan, which includes cloud streaming, is not offered in India.

As for supported regions, the cloud streaming beta for the PlayStation Portal will be available in the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Republic of Cyprus, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, and United States.
