You, as the parent, will have to apply for Indian citizenship for the newborn through the Indian Embassy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jus_sanguinis

The child wont receive Swiss citizenship at birth. You need to go to the Indian embassy with the relevant docs like the birth certificate.

I am person of Indian origin and currently staying in Switzerland on L12 work permit. I have one doubt on child birth in Switzerland. My wife is pregnant and if my child is born in Switzerland,
Is there any benefits that we will get from the Switzerland government?
It would be really great if any one clears my doubt.

2. If for whatever reason you hate google or don't like the idea of searching, then call up indian embassy and check out today's swiss newspapers.
3. Phrase your questions correctly. A person of Indian origin is different from being an Indian.

Hi,
I am also from India and I delivered the baby here in Oct 2010. You will not be entitled for Swiss citizenship neither your child. Even to get the birth certificate, there is a long process ( giving your and your wife's birth certificate and marriage certificate). But apart from all this here the treatment is good and you will know what is happening to your wife and the baby.
There are lot of threads discussed about how to get the birth certificate for the kid, the problems faced by the people, you can search and get the information needed.
All the Best.

But persons born outside of India to Indian parents (after 1992), are citizens of India, so it's not an issue in this case.
