Due to lack of strong data protection law in India and awareness, I won't be surprised if its been purchased from a 3rd party. There are some "Indian startup" groups on Facebook, where it's common for people to sell such databases, and nobody asks if the seller has consent from the people in the database. Such posts also never gets taken down, or the seller doesn't get blocked from the group.
