A public IP address is issued by your ISP and if it is a dynamic address which most are, it will change. There is little you can do about it except get a static IP address and that usually costs more.

If you are in India and your IP address is Australian is maybe that your ISP is a subsidiary company of an Australian company and they have "borrowed" the IP addresses from the parent company. It often happens.

Your ISP will tell you why you have an Australian IP address.

the provider has not done anything.the provider company is airtel.it is a kind of multinational company so therefore there will be no change from there side.All the things have been done from my side ,i used many ip hiding tools to change it.i just wanted to make a prank.I tried many but they didn't worked out.
i tried 7-8 software.the problem is which one changed my ip address permanently i don't know .But i unistalled all the software + reinstalled my windows there is no change .i reinstalled all the software then again set my ip to be free in every software then again unistalled - still no effect.
