As correctly pointed out by @pnuts, yes it is a problem.
I see two ways out:
-
Contact the consulate (or the place that issued your visa) and ask for a correction of the dates on your visa. If you handed in the itinerary with your application they could/should have noticed that.
-
ZRH has an airside transit hotel. Try to have your luggage checked through from DUS to Mumbai and enter the extra-Schengen zone of ZRH airport before midnight (before 10:30 p.m. when security closes to be precise!) and stay in the transit hotel. (Given your flight times there’s not much leeway for delays here!)
I have written more about doing this the other way round in Arriving in Zurich the night before Schengen visa validity begins and there you find contact details for the hotel. Absolutely check with them (they are responsive) whether you can enter the area the night before with a boarding pass for the next day, as that might foil this option.
Or simply change your flight dates as pointed out by @AliAwan and others. On the long run the cost is much lower than having an overstay in your history for future applications.
Yes, you are overstaying your Schengen visa for 1 day.
Although you are finishing your Schengen stay in Dusseldorf , but you exit from Zurich next day (11 January 2017) which is actually your last stop in Schengen Zone.
There could be serious consequences for your next Schengen visa , also you are staying 80 days there and traveling back on 11 January 2017 . There is plenty of time now to change your flight date before the visa expiration date.
Because you must have mentioned in your itinerary to Schengen consulate/embassy that you last date of departure is 10 January 2017, it is always feasible to exit before expiration date.
Options :
1 Either change your travel date before 10 January 2017
2 Or contact embassy/consulate to extend visa for another day.

- Can I apply for a passport in the country I'm in so I can travel to my home country?
Doesn’t it look like I am overstaying my visa period?
Yes.
But is it really a problem as I am returning back to the country I am a passport holder of (India)?
Yes.
