Variations here can be many, depending on the employer. Some can push the date all the way to the end so that you don't have that bargaining power (trust me, I am not kidding, employers do this). You should start at least 6-8 months in-advance, planning to have the offer letter at least two months in-advance. Lots of people say it is better to have another offer in-hand so that you can negotiate with the current employer but in-practice, with the all of the things going on at the same time, do you have time/patience to do a job search, interview and get an offer? Might work, just to have an offer in-hand but definitely will take some time and your energy away.
When it comes to current employer relocation, you should note that it is like a new employment - you need to bargain for salary, position etc. When it comes to tech positions, there is always shortage of experienced hands and your Indian employer knows that (at least in the current situation).
