It's definitely racist when you say that those are Indian family values. It's not racist is you say those are Sunak family values.

Nepotism and corruption are a way of life with India and particularly in a Indian family firm. How do I know? I'm Indian as is the Murthy family. I'm pointing out that they're doing their misdeeds outside India.

If you see their actions as not being examples of nepotism and corruption or if you consider nepotism and corruption to not be misdeeds, you'll need to explain.

I cannot comment on Sunak's family values, but they can't be good if he enables his wife's tax avoidance and his in-laws profiting via nepotism.

You're not even using the word 'racist' in the correct context. What you're thinking of is the word 'bigoted'.

Also, I don't think OP is bigoted, sure didn't seem that was his intention anyway.

Your argument is really "Indian isn't a race"?

Do you think it is?

Also, in that context, OP was referring to his notion of Indian cultural norms.
