It’s best to find an elevated spot away from light pollution with a clear horizon to the north-west. The comet will be visible …
Comet NEOWISE has caught the attention of the stargazers and astronomy experts in India as well. As the comet moves farther away from Earth, its brightness will decrease.

Comet NEOWISE to be visible for just a few more nights Time is running out to spot the comet before it fades away into the icy depths of the solar system. The tail on NEOWISE could indicate that it is strong enough to remain intact in orbit. Photo: NASA/JPL-Caltech Comet C/2020 F3 photographed low in the morning sky on July 7.
In India, skywatchers are able to get a glimpse of the celestial event starting from July 14. It's relaunch in 2013 as NEOWISE brought with it a new mission: "to assist NASA's efforts to identify and characterize the population of near-Earth objects," says NASA.

Comet NEOWISE will make its closest approach to Earth on its journey out of the solar system on July 22 into the morning of July 23, per EarthSky.
Depending on weather conditions, the comet might appear like a bright star. In case you wondered, the comet does not pose any danger to the planet and will pass by harmlessly. -NEOWISE was discovered in March, an average to large size comet measuring about 3 miles wide. This means that sky watchers only have a couple of weeks or days left to watch NEOWISE.

During its tenure, NEOWISE has discovered hundreds of thousands of near-Earth objects, or NEOs. HARRISONBURG, Va. (WHSV) - Comet NEOWISE has transitioned from being visible before sunrise, to now being visible before sunrise and just after sunset. At its closest, the comet came within 64 million miles (103 million km) of Earth. Comet NEOWISE, which is officially known as C/2020 F3, was first discovered by NASA on March 27 using its Near-Earth Object Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (NEOWISE) telescope. It can be found in the northwestern sky under the Big Dipper by around 10 p.m. local time with the tail pointing upward away from the horizon.
As of the night of July 22, you'll be able to spot it sitting below and slightly to the left of the Big Dipper. "It's a really important satellite to have.".
Those in the northern hemisphere can catch this comet in the north sky for most of the month at early dawn and dusk. The comet, officially known as C/2020 F3, was spotted by NASA's NEOWISE satellite in March, as it made its initial approach to the sun.
