2) You can have a look at Audio Technica ATH-AD500 [ATH-AD500] - Rs.5,200.00 : Pristine Note, Shop audio, headphones, amplifier, DAC, hifi, mp3, audiophile products online store India, it is open in nature, though, yet one of the best in sub 5k category. Choose according to your tastes.

If bass is a priority dont go for the AD series , lack bass pretty much . I own a AD700 and they lack bass else they were a total VFM buy at 5900 bucks , maybe you can go for the T-500 or ATH-M35 from Audio Technica from Pristine Note.
Had a HD280Pro , that also sounded good just about had enuf bass but problem was being used to the AD700 the HD280pro did not go down too well for me , maybe you may like see if you can demo the same.

If Bass is your only priority, you can get cheap ones as well. A short list of what I've come across (not necessarily tried):

1) Sony MDR ED12LP - bass boost, under Rs.1000/- (never used)
2) Sennheiser CX 180 - bass boost ( used them, they're good )
3) Sennheiser CX 300ii - good overall, including bass (never used)
4) Klipsch S4i - Good overall, ~ Rs.4,200 (using).

I'm using the S4i's. They're specifically for iDevices, but I use them with my Galaxy S2 and Cowon C2. They're really good when it comes to sound reproduction as well as noise isolation.
You can also look up various reviews and comparisons online on the S4i's. These are the ones I would personally recommend(assuming you have one of the last 3 generations of the iPod Touch).

Contact them over phone or by PM , get their account details and verify stock and do the payment by depositing cash into their account by going directly to the bank.This is the only way incase you dont have a bank account.

If you go by technical methodologies risk is involved , but pristinenote wont cheat you for sure , they have built too good a reputation to cheat anyone , they have their presence established on forums , ebay etc.
Get in contact with them over email . Can PM you the email id's if needed .

With respect to your other query the HD 428 has a good reputation ,but its not a totally for bass headphone(opinion from a user who is my colleague) , with a budget like yours the HD202 should nowhere come in your mind :) , get the audio technica ones , if any issues arise pristine note will surely help you .

P.S: I am no rep or salesperson of PN :p , but his reputation and service and pricing is worth a praise anytime.

I have not heard M35 personally,but have read it is more neutral and not bass heavy like M50,the high impedance does not help matters without an amp.

I can suggest you something which is not bass heavy but has brilliant mid..
Shure SRH440!
Most bass heads hate it..but it is one of the most neutral HP I have ever heard.
It is not fun sounding but dead accurate!!
The elder brother SRH840 albiet )pricey,a very good buy(will take it over M50 anyday!
