An OCI card is different from an Indian visa for long-term stays as it offers more rights and benefits and acts as a permanent residency visa. An OCI card is valid for a lifetime while a long-term Indian visa is valid only for five years. People holding an OCI card can visit India anytime without a visa while long-term Indian visa holders need to apply for a visa each time when visiting India.

I have applied for the conversion of my PIO to an OCI card for which I have applied for OCI registration online and provided all the essential documents like passport, photo, birth certificate, PIO card, etc, and submitted my application to the VFS center.
As I know An Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) card is a long life multiple access to India by which you can travel to India anytime and stay as long as you want.
With my OCI card, I have enjoyed many benefits which include, similar rights as Indian citizens in the economic sector, financial sector, and educational sector.
I have an Indian visa before an OCI card which has only a valid time limit of 15 years and has a short-term stay length and I need to report to the authorities for the length of the stay.
