You are correct, the swastika was and still is a symbol from the indian culture, having both a religius and a symbolic meaning. It's the sun wheel, a symbol for the sun and in religion as a sign of the sun as God.
When used today, you often make sure to put dots in between the legs, just to make a point of not making it remind to much of the nazisymbol, which was tilted and clean.
