  Comet 2I/Borisov is the first true interstellar comet discovered. Here we
present results from observational programs at two Indian observatories, 2 m
Himalayan Chandra Telescope at the Indian Astronomical Observatory, Hanle (HCT)
and 1.2 m telescope at the Mount Abu Infrared Observatory (MIRO). Two epochs of
imaging and spectroscopy were carried out at the HCT and three epochs of
imaging at MIRO. We found CN to be the dominant molecular emission on both
epochs, 31/11/2019 and 22/12/2019, at distances of r$_H$ = 2.013 and 2.031 AU
respectively. The comet was inferred to be relatively depleted in Carbon
bearing molecules on the basis of low $C_2$ and $C_3$ abundances. We find the
production rate ratio, Q($C_2$)/Q(CN) = 0.54 $\pm$ 0.18, pre-perihelion and
Q($C_2$)/Q(CN) = 0.34 $\pm$ 0.12 post-perihelion. This classifies the comet as
being moderately depleted in carbon chain molecules. Using the results from
spectroscopic observations, we believe the comet to have a chemically
heterogeneous surface having variation in abundance of carbon chain molecules.
From imaging observations we infer a dust-to-gas ratio similar to carbon chain
depleted comets of the Solar system. We also compute the nucleus size to be in
the range $0.18\leq r \leq 3.1$ Km. Our observations show that 2I/Borisov's
behaviour is analogous to that of the Solar system comets.
