How do I store tomato pickle?

I'm planning on making tomato pickle, I've read that it can last up to a year, but is that in the pantry or in the fridge? I would prefer to keep it in the pantry, if I do that, by how much am I reducing its life?

I would prefer answers from people with experience cooking Indian dishes.

Canning is not an option.

Why aren't you canning them in a water bath? That's the whole point of pickling something, is to can it in a water bath so they'll keep forever...or at least a few years.
