"Speculation is swirling that a bill to formally rename the country could be submitted at a special parliamentary session the government has scheduled for Sept. 18 to 22" -- Nikkei https://asia.nikkei.com/Politics/India-or-Bharat-G20-dinner-invitation-triggers-name-change-row
Note that any bill proposing changes that would switch any official reference to India to Bharat would count. (And the bill does not need to pass.)

How would you judge a bill that adds Bharat as an alternative name with no mandated switchover yet?

@mcld probably NO -- as I understand it Bharat is already an alternative name in many contexts.
