We have to put canonical tag code below <head> tag of each page.

Anywhere inside the head tag <head></head> commonly, put after the meta tags.

But if you want to keep both page on your live website then you can add canonical tag in your webpages including www.example.com and www.example.com/index.php.Medicine Delivery App | Book Diagnostic Lab | Buy Medicines Online | Buy Patanjali Products Online | Buy Vaccines Online | Online Medical Store | HerCare | Periods and Fertility Tracker | Menstrual Cycle Tracker | Buy Beauty Care Products Online | Buy Baby Care Products Online | Buy Health Supplements Online

The Canonical Tag is part of the HTML header on a webpage. This is the same place where we put other fun SEO stuff like the title tag, meta description tag and the robots tag. The code, as in my example above, would look like this.
<link rel="canonical" href="http://example.com/quality-wrenches.htm"/>
It is added inside the head tag

Add a <link> element with the attribute rel="canonical" to the <head> section of the web page.
For exaple: <link rel="canonical" href="https://blog.example.com/dresses/green-dresses-are-awesome" />
