Hello guys, Why it shows my location as the UK while I am in India? Am I missing something in the settings? [location]

Are you using some kind of VPN? I think the Location is based on the IP that is used for the particular login.

No I am not using any VPN service. But I am using cloudflare for my site. Is that a problem?

No, I haven’t included the cloudflare template in yml file.

No, it’s a configuration problem.

You really should follow the steps in Full site CDN acceleration for Discourse in order to get a working Cloudflare setup.
