.22 Pellets via Pune Delhi domestic flight

Hi!

I'll be returning home after a semester, from Pune to Delhi.
I wanted to bring some airgun pellets for my .22 Precihole AR as I find them cheaper here ( Rs 40/100 pellets that Rs 70/100 pellets)
I will be buying them from the Gunmark Armoury, Sadashiv Peth.
My question is

a. Can I bring these pellets via flight (cabin or checked in bag, any way)?
b. Do I need a membership?
c. will they charge me something extra, for carrying pellets? ( I recently heard that there were some changes in some rules.. not quite sure)
d. What is the maximum number of pellets that I can bring?
e. any other problem that just might pop up?

I'll be taking an Indigo flight, from Pune (lohegaon) Airport.

Anybody else who has travelled with pellets in an INDIGO DOMESTIC flight, WITHOUT MEMBERSHIP?
Any other experiences?


Thanks,
Nikhil

One pellet can in checked in luggage shouldn't be a problem.
There is no rule against it as they aren't propelled by powder.
Remember checked in-luggage.
You can also talk to the airline about it.
I have taken two packs on Spice Jet.

Dev
