I have Kaspersky premium subscription (1 device 2 years) for two years with around 100 days of subscription left. I purchased it directly from Kaspersky india website and I have not set it to automatically renew as it is too costly. If I purchase a premium key for 3 years (1 device 3 years) from Amazon and add it to my existing premium app, will I lose the existing 100 days ? Or i just get the 3 year?

When you add a new license, it doesn't overwrite the existing one. Your 3-year subscription will start only after your current subscription of 100 days ends. So, you won't lose the remaining days.

It will add the license to your kaspersky account but it wont start using that license until you decide to start using that license

so you wont lose license you have 100 days on.

But i guess you manually have to start using that 3 years license before it activates, like swap to that 3 years license when you have few days previous license left

of course @harlan4096 can correct if im wrong

ps. im using kaspersky too, and was wondering if i could combine two licenses, but i guess you have choose manually wich license you want to use, so use previous license before activate new license, thats what im planning to do.

IIRC Kaspersky has different license activation rules dependent upon from whom the license was purchased, the type of license, and the region of the world in which the license was purchased (because the license activation is guided by local laws or rules).

One can always submit a request to Kaspersky Support to "merge" licenses. They can only say "Yes" or "No" while providing further instructions if it is "No."

If you buy the license directly from Kaspersky it will be activated immediately. If you buy from third parties, it may be activated or not, it really depends on the kind of license, and you should ask the vendor before buying.

Also :

“ The validity period of the activation code is the period during which you can activate the application with this code. If an activation code has never been applied to a computer, it has an unlimited validity period, unless otherwise stated on the box or website when purchasing ”

If your Amazon purchase is from different region of your residence, Kaspersky activation could fail. Please be sure your purchase is in same region (India in this case).
