I doubt that, cukes don't ship well, have a short shelf life... and it
certainly doesn't pay to ship pickles all the way from India, the
shipping alone would cost five times as much as growing cukes locally
and bringing them to market. Cucumbers are extremely prolific,
there's no reason to ship them long distance. Pickling spices come
from India but not the cucumbers.
