"After careful consideration, I have decided to continue my work here at Kent. This has been a really difficult decision," said Ford.
"I am honoured that India have shown such interest in my capabilities, but feel that this is the right decision for me and my family."
India, who parted company with Chappell after a dismal effort in the World Cup, must now continue their search for a new coach - and time is running out to have somebody in place for a one-day international against Ireland on June 23.
Kent chairman Graham Johnson said: "This is really great news for Kent cricket. We are delighted Graham has decided to stay with us. I would like to say how much we appreciate the way Graham has handled the last few days.
"He has made a significant contribution to our playing performance during his time with us, as well as the system to produce local cricket talent in Kent.
"I know that all in the business at Kent, the playing staff, the coaching staff and all our administrators will be thrilled by his decision."
