Depends where you are, the quantity needed, and whether you want to buy on line or off line.
If you need in small quantities, buy at a reputed shop in your city, and be happy.
If you buy on line, see the extra charges for sending it to you, and work out the price per piece.
Or simply buy a Keltron capacitor kit from Delhi, and save yourself the trouble of making a whole kit, unless you need for repair.
Keltron capacitors are much better than Chinese capacitors, worth the extra money.
Keltron had or has a technical licence of Sprague, Belgium, well regarded in India
Sometimes faked.
Unless you are going for metal film resistors and Japanese/German capacitors...that is a different level of construction.
Your choice.

Lamington Road then...
Ask at repair shops in your area, maybe they have a source in the market at Lamington Road.
Not worth the trip for such a small value.
Better to pay postage or whatever.
And check why yours failed.

Thanks Naresh. The ICs have not failed just wanted to see how genuine ICs sound. But now that idea has been abandoned.

Double price.....and 18% GST on top of it.
It is about 250 on the street, and 615 or so on RS.
His amp is seemingly working, and given the current Covid situation, it is wiser to keep this project on hold.
Or abandon it as he says.
The chips are cheap, the risk is not worth it... 500 Rupees is about 5 Pounds of UK money.
