Will it work? someone suggested me 2a3 also, but I am skeptical of trying other tubes.
any Indian source for it ?

2A3 !!!! No way.

Yes 6CA7 will work, same octal pin as EL34 but bigger bottle and better construction but must be 6CA7 only. Try National brand. eBay US. Buy NOS only. And try Russian 6SN7 / 6SL7 too.

The amp aught to make excellent deep bass too but that depends on the OPTs too. EL34 is no slouch compared to KT88.

6CA7 Single Ended Amplifier driving 88dB BS at just 1 watt power: (intention is to show EL34 / 6CA7 are quite bass delivery capable)
