To get an overview of linux supported devices you should visit 
http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hardware_Device_Information

According to http://www.dvb.org/news/worldwide in India DVB-T is rolled out, 
so e.g. the PCTV 290e USB stick should work. I don't know if you can find DVB-
C (Digital Video Broadcast / Cable) or DVB-S (/Satellite).

For VDR or live TV, all DVB-T/C/S/T2/C2/S2 are very similar. You need 
country/cable company/satellite specific channel tables, but then you get an 
MPEG2 transport stream, containing video as either mpeg2 or h.264 (and hevc in 
future).

Kind regards,

Stefan
