Term of respect in India (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sahib

'term of respect in india' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for sahib that I've seen before include "European in India" , "Indian term of respect to a man" , "Polite form of Indian address to a man" , "Term of respect to man in India" , "Polite Indian title" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and the Universal.
