It was not issued widely or as a standard firearm for sure, though some may have been "inherited" as leftovers from WW II. However, they do have large stocks of these pistols in their NSP (non service pattern) stockpile. I'd speculate that these could have come from various wars/ actions (Indo-pak, Goa action, etc.) where stockpiles of arms were "liberated" by the Indian Army ;)
