Home help coming back for land (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

india

'for land' is the definition.
(India is an example)

'home help coming back' is the wordplay.
'home' becomes 'in' ('he's home' can mean 'he's in').
'help' becomes 'aid' (synonyms).
'coming back' is a reversal indicator.
'aid' reversed gives 'dia'.
'in'+'dia'='INDIA'

(Other definitions for india that I've seen before include "Cricket team" , "vast country" , "Republic in south Asia" , "Kiss; quarter of a bushel" , "Eastern country" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
