Ravinder, Yes, been there, done that! (Kenmore 1980's Model).
Used a 2kVA xformer w/ US style outlet strip for microwave and other US kitchen appliances. Only problem - Clock/Timer ran at 5/6 time so it was necessary to enter 1:12 for every 1 minute of cook time! (Perhaps some up to date models run clock from a crystal so wouldn't have that problem).
