Hi rajeshsahai;

This may seem too obvious, but have you read Yogani's book on Tantra?
Tantra-Discovering the Power of Pre-Orgasmic Sex.
I'm not sure if it's available in India or not but if you go to www.insilencebooks.com you can order it there or other books by Yogani and have them mailed to you in India.

Regards;

Guy

ps I think you'll find the prices at insilencebooks to be a little less than Amazon or any other retailer.

The most famous one would be Vigyana Bhairava Tantra.

There is Osho's commentaries on the Vigyana Bhirava Tantra available on the web:

Some of the other books that might be of interest: (I am sure you will get Indian editions of these books.. I am linking the Amazon USA pages for you just so you get an idea of what the books look like)
The Triadic Heart of Siva: Kaula Tantricism of Abhinavagupta in the Non-Dual Shaivism of Kashmir.

The Doctrine of Vibration: An Analysis of the Doctrines and Practices of Kashmir Shaivism

Shiva Sutras: The Supreme Awakening



If you are looking for left-handed Tantra books:
Abhinavagupta: The Kula Ritual (As Elaborated in Chapter 29 of the Tantraloka) (there is only one translation of this book and only one chapter available in English, but you may get some other translations in India maybe?).

And of course Yogani's book suggested by Guy above. Most of Yogani's books are available in Indian edition now. Please look at the Book page for more info.
They are available through Grasroutes India, FirstandSecond India and Rediff India.
