India's passport website says the following
Q1: What is the definition of damaged passport?
A: Damaged passport is classified further based on the extent of damage, i.e.:
- Damaged Passport - Passport number is readable, name is legible and photo is intact
- Damaged beyond recognition
Im sure your home country will let you in(Maybe with some questioning). It would have been more of an issue if you were travelling to another country. My advice would be to have your passport open on the picture page when you hand it to the border officer. Usually they don't even look at other pages when you are coming home.
