I think you are really a noob about linux. Well here are the answers:
  1. I do not know about the availability in Mumbai but you can download every distro from the websites for free.
  2. Every linux distros are absolutely free with some exceptions like the SUSE. But U can get every free version for personal use.
  3. Yeah, surely you can modify them if you are a code cruncher :D

Hi Prathamesh !

90% of Linux Distributions are free to download and install. I dont know about Mumbai vendors but you can search local Linux User Group of Mumbai from here ( Server is down right now. Try after a while ).

Why do you want to modify any distro at this stage? I would suggest you to download install any Linux distro and have a little bit experience first. Check distrowatch.com

Have fun with Linux !!
