You can import a Firearms under two condition
1. Being a renowned shot , and obtain a import license for your own pesonal use in target shooting category.
2. As a NRI , while returning to india , under Transfer of Residence category one NPB fireamrs are allowed to import with maximum of 50 rounds ammunition
Apart from above two you cannot import any firearms from abroad.
