In the usual Indian MBBS curriculum, 2nd year (Phase II) includes:
  1. Pathology
  2. Pharmacology
  3. Microbiology
  4. Forensic Medicine and Toxicology (FMT)
Many colleges also begin or continue clinical postings and early exposure to subjects such as Medicine, Surgery, Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Pediatrics, and Community Medicine.
The NMC undergraduate curriculum lists Pathology, Pharmacology, Microbiology, and Forensic Medicine & Toxicology as para-clinical subjects. See the NMC UG curriculum.

You’re right. In many current college schedules, FMT is not taught in 2nd year.
2nd year MBBS subjects:
  1. Pathology
  2. Pharmacology
  3. Microbiology
FMT / Forensic Medicine is generally taught later, often in 3rd year / Phase III Part 1, depending on your university and batch curriculum. My earlier answer used the broader NMC subject list rather than your college’s year-wise distribution.
