what are the tiebreak rules for badminton group stage? head to head or games won?

Points (matches) won and then set ratio, if they have equal points. I don't think they are using head-to-head.

Are you sure? I think it might be head to head because when  beat  in men’s doubles it showed Indonesia beneath them in the table despite having a better set ratio. And I imagine if the Indian pair win their match and cause a 3-way tie, it will then go to set ratio.

I’m not 100% sure but that’s what I thought.

Not sure at all  I couldn't find an official document. I think 3-way tie is the only one possible and therefore the set ratio would be used imo.

A two-way tie is possible also. For example if India lost against GB it would leave  and  with 2 wins each and  and  with 1 win each. And in that circumstance head to head is probably what counts. At least that’s why I think they currently have  above  despite having worse set ratio. If India wins and joins them on 2 wins each then it won’t be head to head used and then will go to set ratio. Again I am not sure either but it seems like this is the system they are using.

And confirmed. India won so it resulted in a 3-way tie which meant head to head no longer could be used to break the tie and that dropped  below  again:

Yes H2H is only used to break two tied players, not a three way tie.
