You're right, India and China will never fight each other directly. Too much to lose on both sides.
I disagree with your second paragraph though... we have influence in Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Myanmar, etc.
I think you are wrong to say we have no influence on our South Asian neighbours apart from Pakistan and Myanmar. Look at us building military ports in Sri Lanka for example.
BBC News - Sri Lanka port built with Chinese help
dude building a port or giving some economic assistance doesn't mean influence. than japan has more influence than others. but that is not true. and that port is not for military use as said the president of SL.
influence means your power on the country's decision making, the country take care of your concerns and the country cannot be used by other powers against you.
Its true that China's influence is growing.
