You might do better if, wherever you post the question, you entitle it something like "sending electrical items to India" rather than "quick question" as most people probably can't be bothered to read the latter.

As with most things the best way won't be a cheap way...

Start with MSE's cheap parcel delivery article and the linked forum thread:

What sort/size of electrical item? The advice you might get for sending a fridge/freezer would be somewhat different to that for a radio.

first question. is it worth posting?
Is it not available over there?

second,if you want answers then you need to give information.
Value,weight & dimensions are the core points in postage.

Amazon sometimes allow you to select other countries as delivery destinations. That way you can find out what it costs for all sorts of items from their web site!

don't know what electrical system India use, is the blender compatible with Indias' supply voltage? (uk = 230~240 AC 50Hz)

Best and cheapest is to get quotes from the usual suppliers on a pay as you go basis e.g. Royal Mail, UPS, Fedex etc. No-one is going to do it for you.
