Can two persons with same flight ticket apply for visa from different countries?

When you are flying with the airline I am working for in IT, as an example, you are technically getting multiple tickets even if you have booked the flight together.
The distinction of bookings (reservation data like seats) and tickets (mostly commercial data such as fares and fees) is mostly for technical reasons and dates back to ancient technology.
All of this has no relevance for visa and other “official” documents.

Not only required at Country Level, but possibly at provincial level as well for India. This especially applies to PRC. I’m in Australia and I have to apply independently of my wife because we officially reside in different states. Try and follow the South, West, Southwest, and “Mumbai, Ahmedabad & Pune” requirements for Malaysia in @phoogs link above….

Yes you can apply that way.

Actually we do submit our tickets (photocopy) when we apply for visas.

However, it isn’t a strict neccesity. We do it that way in order to provide some proof of our planned journey. That’s it. You dont need to worry about it.

It’s not only possible, it is required.

Malaysia’s consulates in both the India and Germany require visa applicants to prove that they reside in their respective countries.

From the VFS pages for Malaysian visa applications in India:

Foreign National’s [sic] will have to submit a valid address proof of India.

The Malaysian consulate general in Frankfurt notes among the required documents for a visa application:

Valid Residence permit for Germany

Which country your travel companion applies from is irrelevant to which country you should apply from.

Can two persons with same flight ticket apply for visa from different
countries?

Yes. Actually, it’s generally preferable to apply from your country of residence. For many countries, it’s even a strict requirement. (Edit: and the Malaysian embassy in India appears to be an example of it, as @phoog’s answer now shows.) Both of you should apply in your respective countries of residence.

If you were thinking of applying in India, one of the only situations in which you might be able to do so is if you are an Indian citizen. But even then, you probably would still want to apply from your country of residence. It’s less complicated and you avoid the complications described by mcenzm.
