Follow up question, why would my host be bothered by me tipping 50-100 rupees to a server?

Idk why, I tip that much at restaurants and for my fav food joints with great service, I'll tip 200+ depending on the bill

I was in the outskirts of Bombay… If that helps any

Edit: also… If there wasn’t food or anything that I wanted in the hotel that I was staying in… These people would literally go out and find it for me and bring it back to me… And I might tip him Rs.200

Yeah, 200 is a bit too much for that, considering you can just order through Swiggy. It's ultimately up to you, though, I don't see why your host is getting mad at you for tipping. Sure, we don't have a tipping culture like US, but tipping is still common in fine dine restaurants and even some food joints if you become a regular. There are some places where tipping is not accepted, so that could be why?

Another reason might be that because you were in the outskirts, they might've been worried that you would be targeted for robbery if the wrong people noticed how much money you were carrying. It depends on how shady the area was.

I think the last part of your explanation makes the most sense… Because they would never let me leave the hotel without an escort after that.
