According to the Wiki on the Hermes, the crowdfunding attempt failed. The Indian cabinet approved the ship to become a maritime museum, but when funding for that proved elusive, the minister responsible announced the carrier would be scrapped. Sad, but it seems unlikely it will be preserved.

Those who don't remember their history are bound to do something or other...
