This is India's stance in every aspect- it will only go where there is a UN mandate to do so, it has reitierated this point over the years across multiple theatres; SCS, Iraq, Syria etc etc. Nothing has changed, India won't get sucked into others' fights.
But the U.N has already given aa mandate for countries to intervvene in Syria BY ALL MEANS NECESSARY to stabilize the country and get rid of ISIS, plus i'm sure Russia will be very happy to see its India friend fighting by its side against ISIS and other extremists groups in Syria.
So I dont think it's always about UN Mandate , more about a country's larger interests, capabilities and geo political realities in a region.
