I mean, I can't speak for India or most of the world for sure, but certificates tend to count in your favor. However, what defines whether or not you'll get a job is having other job experiences and a good portfolio, because businessmen only want people that can get the job done decently and as fast as possible, which means that they won't care much about your degree or certificates. But even so, I recommend chasing them even though they shouldn't your main focus. Would you rather hire someone who claims to be proficient in something through certificates or someone who has some job experiences in the field and projects in their portfolio where you can see how well they get the job done?

Apart from what Pedro has already mentioned, I would point another important aspect of certifications and why doing certifications for complete beginner may help. The list of materials, the topics for certification. When you prepare for the certification you force yourself to go over important topics of the language, ecosystem, framework, cloud, whatever. Without that, when you're on your own, you may feel like being in the library where all the books are put one huge pile without any order. You don't know what to learn, in which order, and almost certainly you may end up learning something unimportant and missing something important. But when you'll be doing certifications and preparing for them, you will get that list.
