4k content is still in it's infancy. It's scarce and still developing. But 4k TVs are a great investment for the future.

HD (1080P) content will be automatically up-converted and it will look great.

Most 4k TV's will let one enhance it to your taste. Streaming and cable content will be very vivid and look good. But Blu Ray will be much superior.

Does India have HD content from cable providers?

Nowadays you can buy 2nd grade 48" 4k TV's at walmart for $429 or so.

Yup , I think the operators in India provide around 35-40 HD channels. The number keeps increasing every month .
