Answer:
The easy way is to use online courier communities formed travelers; like CHAKKR.
You can find a traveler on CHAKKR who may be willing to take your parcel to India, against a very small fee. Considering the frequency of flights, I think this kind of delivery is much more faster than using any professional services. You can try CHAKKR at chakkr dot com.
You can also use a parcel forwarding company to send items to India. Look up Shipito. You can send your parcel to their warehouse in California and they forward everything on to India. They charge a fee of $8.50 per package BUT their international shipping rates are lower than that of Fedex and UPS and even their competitors.
