The best information source would be one the global power cord manufacturers. Contact either Feller or Volex to see what they know.
Also, be careful with Indian plugs that are used for Electrical Shavers. I had an issue some years back with ungrounded plugs where someone tried to setup a cord set with a shaver plug. I recommend that you use the grounded and ungrounded South African Plugs for India and only get the plugs certified in India if it is a Customer satisfaction issue. SABs certification is usually good enough for the whole power cord or cord set.
