I do not know the current status;
However Cayin [Spark] was sold in India by The Sound Smiths & Prima Luna was sold by Nova Audio.
However, that was a while back.
Not so sure if any are being represented in India.
Advance Acoustics is an option to consider - sold in Pune - Sound & Vision [not tubed]
I think your friend needs a tube amp - so I understand...
:sad:
