If you're using TorGuard VPN, the Mumbai server will not work (apparently Microsoft knows their IP addresses). You'll get the "purchased in a different region from your account" error. However, the Bangalore server works perfectly.
Some other VPNs may also have the same issue. The "purchased in a different region from your account" error typically means you should try connecting to a different city in India or try using a different VPN. It does not mean that you should change your XBox account's region from the US to India, this is never required.
Urban VPN [urban-vpn.com] is a free extension (Chrome, Firefox, Edge) or app (Windows, Mac, Android, iOS).

A year ago, with better Xbox Gold to Gamepass Ultimate conversion rate and cheaper 3-month gold codes, I could've extended Gamepass Ultimate for another year for ~$35 (but I already maxed out 3 years). With inflation and all the talk about MS probably going to raise gamepass price again after spending so much money buying studios, I won't choose to wait for too long.
Need to wait about 3 more weeks, before being able to fully top off my account, but don't want to risk buying a code and not using it till then.
So I bought 3 years worth of Core, which was 6x 6 months at around $12 each with fees. When I converted those 36 months instead of cutting them in half, I got 25 months instead since my Ultimate sub was inactive at the time. Better conversion rate, a little under $3/month.
I've since topped the remaining 11 months up to 3 years total at the same 81-day conversion rate most people with active Ultimate subs get, at around $4/month. Still a great deal regardless of the conversion.
