As a rule of thumb, if the country does not accept Israeli passports, its airlines will not accept them either.
In the Middle East, this means primarily Iran Air, Kuwait Airways and Saudia are off the table for your itinerary. There are a number of minor carriers in the region that would also refuse you in theory (MEA, Iraqi, etc), but as far as I’m aware none fly to India, so these would not be an issue in practice. (To be quite precise, Iraqi actually does fly to India, but it’s banned from the EU!)
However, note that the five biggest players — Emirates, Etihad, Qatar, Turkish and Gulf Air — do accept Israeli citizens for connecting flights.
