none. Cochin has no shops selling Crossbows. i have seen stocks of dismantled recurve bow in some sport stores but the quality was inferior and price super high.
Best way to go about is to get from gsmith Pune, to get someone to ship this to you. One of our members are trading in Lynx-india website the Gsmith crossbows.

2 Cents:
Additionally, for some immediate peace of mind and some crossbow action meanwhile, Alappuzha has many crossbow makers, (traditional ones based on wood and metal), primary use for fishing, but i have seen good ones that can push a country bolt an impressive 10 metres straight. you can get this done with the carpenter shops seen by the side of backwaters in Alappuzha, the coloquial name for this is "Thettali".
