How do holders of Indian passports obtain a Schengen visa?

The 26 nations that have a unified visa policy make up the Schengen area of the European Union. They have collectively reduced the value of passports within themselves. For the nations that are a part of it, Schengen is recognised as the largest visa-free region in the world.

All citizens of the Schengen area are welcome, as are tourists from all around the world. India is not one of the few nations that can visit any of the Schengen nations without a visa, despite there being certain exceptions.
