I wouldn't be surprised if compliance is nil. I don't live in India, but have a name that is common in that part of the world (moreso Pakistan, to be honest) and a Gmail address that reflects that. My address gets signed up for different web services in India & Pakistan on nearly a daily basis. At least 50% of the time, the email address of the person signing up is not even verified, so the account is immediately enrolled and I start receiving all sorts of confidential information which is not intended for me (phone bills, travel receipts, banking information, etc). I have almost never had success contacting these companies to let them know they're sending this information to a random individual. They often do not have "unsubscribe" options and, as you mentioned, if they list a support address it often bounces or a human reply is never encountered. Obviously I'm generalizing here, but my impression of the standards in that region with respect to this stuff is pretty low compared to North America. There appears to be little or no pressure to comply.
