since when do we have a split of French India and the single mints of it becoming their own issuers?

that is normally not how we define issuers

If I understand correctly, this coin was struck at the Pondicherry mint, for use in Mahe (https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=14860727 ; https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=12655977 )  which explains the confusion.

 

So, I think we keep the first (correct and earlier) listing with modification to the title, and delete the second.  

 

The question of whether to have one issuer with a handful of mints, or a handful of sub-issuers is perhaps a gray area.  If I understand correctly, these mints were in geographically isolated (or at least separated) enclaves, so I am guessing the coins did not circulate widely?
