Depending on which "Indian food" you're talking about, most of it is deep-fried (in vegetable oil) starchy crap and it is not particularly good for you.
For example, saag paneer is onions sauteed in vegetable oil with a handful of spinach, some heavy cream, and some cheese. Samosas, which are delicious, are basically mashed potatoes, wrapped in dough, and then deep fried.
It's basically a lot of deep-fried, a lot of bread/potatoes/rice.
The tandoori stuff is reasonably healthy, but keep in mind that pretty much any of the dishes with any sort of sauce are using heavy cream and/or vegetable oil as a base.
