If you are refering to the IOF Pump Action Gun? If so the IOF stopped selling these to civilians by order of the Home ministry. the ones in the market that were procured before this order are still perfectly legal to buy if they are available from a dealer or a licensee. The reviews for this PAG are in the shotguns section please look it up.
Anand :D

Anand,
I am not referring to IOF Pump Action. Actually I saw the gun I am referring to about 9-10 years ago with a dealer. It was a Brand New Indian Make 12 bore shotgun with magazine and I am sure it was not Pump Action.

Cheers

I believe ruger_rugged is talking about the lever action Shaktiman Shotgun. To be entirely honest I've never handled it myself, but what little I've heard from very reliable sources is that it's a poorly made unreliable gun, prone to frequent failure. If I were you, I'd stay well away from it.... unless you are a hobby gunsmith who is thinking of getting a "project gun" - not so much to shoot it, but to patiently work at fixing it's problems...
