The Indian wheatear is a small bird 15–17 centimeters long. Males have black plumage with a white patch on the wing and a rufous rump, while females are colored in gray-brown tones.
The Indian wheatear differs from close species by the habit of holding its tail raised upward and strong sexual dimorphism in coloration. It helps nature by eating harmful insects in fields and gardens.
