Might it be the application doing the redirect, and not nginx?

What is the output from running the command

  curl -i http://myserver.co.in:81/index.php

? Does it include anything like "X-Powered-By: PHP"?

If it *is* the application, then you'll probably want to configure it
to do what you want it to do.

Good luck with it,
