desi
Word derived from Sanskrit. Means "one from our country"; a national opposed to a foreign. Usually refers to people from India, Pakistan, & Bangladesh.

Urban Dictionary: desi
I prefer these definition :agree:

"Anybody who is able to read and understand word Desi" is desi. That includes Indians, Pakistanis, Bangladeshis etc.

By the way, "Dais" is an Urdu word that means "Homeland" or "Watan".. the Arabic equivalent is "Watni" and English equivalent is "Native". In General sence, Desi means anybody who belongs to civilization of Indian Subcontinent.

Also the word "Desi" is most probably taken from Urdu because in Urdu the name for homeland is "Dais" while in Hindi it is "Daish". If that had been taken from Indian "Daish", that would've been "Deshi" but its "Desi" and that implies it is an Urdu term instead of Hindi.

Ever heard about Desi Anda (egg) and Walayti Anda?

Its not about India but it reffers to south Asia. We in Pakistan have 10s of food items and dishes (as Zaki pointed out above) which has these words. Desi Murghi, Desi Anda, Desi Ghee, Desi Khane etc.

Hindu equivalent of "Country" is "Daish" and not "Dais".
