Where are you getting your internet service?

You can go to vsnl.net and sign up for an account at a modest price for x
hours of usage. Much easier/cheaper than international dialing or some of
those ripoff roaming services offered by western ISPs.

VSNL is not the best ISP in the world, but they do have local dial-in
numbers in most cities; other Indian ISPs have less comprehensive coverage.
