curl www.google.com works differently when the url is called from browser directly

When I type curl www.google.com in the terminal I get the below reply. But when I type the similar url(www.google.com) in browser(chrome) I get redirected to www.google.co.in

Why am I not able to see the below HTML when I call the same URL from browser?

<HTML><HEAD><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8">
<TITLE>302 Moved</TITLE></HEAD><BODY>
<H1>302 Moved</H1>
The document has moved
<A HREF="http://www.google.co.in/">here</A>.
</BODY></HTML>
