You are right. India does not accept dual nationality completely. You can apply for an OCI card (overseas Citizen of India). This will let you travel to India visa free all you life. More details on how to apply here

It is better to have a Stamp 6 OR stamp 5 on your home country passport so you can travel without any visa issues with your home country passport.

Its illegal in India to hold dual citizenship. By having a stamp 6 you will be giving the officials proof that you hold dual citizenship
