If a power supply was purchased in North America would it work in countries overseas such as Europe or India?

Some do, some don't. It will either be auto switching or have a switch on the back of the psu.
But you'll have to get a power lead that matches the country's sockets.

You'll have to check the docs you got with the PSU, or do a search on the net. If in doubt, don't plug it in.
