Next September I'm going to pass 4 months in India for my studies. What are some good/essential books about or from India?

Hey OP. Not sure "about" India, but "from" would be the usual Bhagavad Gita, Ramayana, Mahabharata.

The pancha tantra; Canakya Pundit's writings; Swami Vivekananda's writings; Bhakti rasamrita sindhu; Caitanya Caritamrita. There are many. Also, be sure to visit the temples established by Sripada Shankarācarya.
