The incident took place in at Parkhill Lawns in the Kilnamanagh area of Tallaght at around 6pm on Saturday evening.
Gardaí are appealing to people not post or reshare social media content including footage related to the incident.
The assault on the Indian man by a group on Saturday has been condemned as “mindless, racist violence”.
The man is believed to have only entered the country a number of weeks ago.
The man was taken to Tallaght University Hospital for treatment after the attack on Saturday evening.
Fine Gael councillor, Baby Pereppadan for Tallaght South, met with the man on Monday and said he is in “shock”.
He told the Irish Independent: “He couldn’t speak much because of the shock he was in, he only arrived in Ireland three weeks ago. He is not taking any visitors at the moment.
“I am calling for more Garda presence in the area. Small incidents like these are happening frequently in Tallaght.
“People need to understand that many Indian people moving to Ireland are here on work permits, to study and work in the healthcare sector or in IT and so on, providing critical skills.”

Sinn Féin TD for Dublin South-West, Seán Crowe, has said that violent and racist attack on Parkhill Road in Tallaght on Saturday must be the last.
“The attack on Parkhill Road, Tallaght on Saturday was vile and utterly unacceptable on so many levels.
“Anyone who thinks this sort of mindless, racist violence makes their community safer is lying and fooling no one. Some residents are increasingly nervous to leave their homes due to this type of behaviour, regardless of whether they are new arrivals to our community or have lived here all their lives.
“I condemn this attack entirely and call on anyone with any information relating to this incident to reach out to the garda authorities. This is not the first such attack in our area, but it has to be the last,” he added.
In a statement Gardaí said: “Gardaí in Tallaght were alerted to an incident at Parkhill Road, Tallaght, Dublin 24 on the evening of Saturday 19th July, 2025 at approximately 6pm.
“Gardaí attended the scene and a male, aged in his 40s was taken to Tallaght University Hospital with injuries.”
