Because they have to pay a massive premium over the USD based market price? If that's what you mean, then I can understand that, but it just shows that the demand far exceeds the actual supply on Indian exchanges. When that is the case, and by doing some quick research, it also shows that this is the case, then people are willing to pay more just to get themselves some coins. This will change when people will use this premium as a motivation to withdraw some coins from western exchanges, and sell them at Indian exchanges.
