Egypt admits India citizens on better terms if they already hold certain visas or residence permits of other countries:
Visa on arrival · 30 days
Egypt: Indian citizens with a used US/UK/Schengen/Japan visa or a Western residence permit get a 30-day visa on arrival (not guaranteed).
Conditions: valid AND used visa (US/UK/Schengen/Japan) or a Western residence permit; return ticket and funds; issued at the officer's discretion — an e-visa in advance is safer
