a) IIRC .32 ACP ammo retails for approx INR 200-250 or so per pop not sure about the price of .32 S&W Long ammo, but it's safe to assume it will be similarly priced.
b) The only way you can import a gun is to make it to the Nationals in the relevant event and get the Minimum Qualifying Score - i.e. you need to get a "renown shot" certificate.
c) The UGB 25 Xcel is a semi-auto shotgun and you will need a PB shotgun license to own one (that is if you can find one here).

Posts split from the for sale thread as this was going OT
Importing a Beretta Xcel, may not be easy even with a "renown shot" certificate. You can only import a gun to be used in the particular discipline(s) in which you have qualified as a renown shot, and with the competitors in shotgun events now being restricted to O/U shotguns only, you will have a really hard time convincing them that this is being imported for use in shooting sports.
There is already a thread here on zeroing rifles, use the search function on this website to locate it.
Cheers!
