personally, in this situation, I would either do the following:

1) Buy in India an have the TV place deliver it to me.

2) Buy brand new in a box and then have the company ship it to me in India and pay for the freight with all the responsibility on the company doing the shipping.

This is a moot point unles you are buying some amazing new TV that no one can get a hold of.
Well, if you ship w/ a reputable carrier in the original packing with insurance, you are pretty well covered. Typically you can't find any top-of-the-line stuff in India, at least that I've seen.
