It is important to you but not really important to the readers, Vyankatesh :-)

For that reason, you need to put far more effort into it than you expect a reader to put into it--yet you've spent mere seconds on your posting and want an answer that would take a minimum of several hours of work :-(

Contact a manufacturer or distributor of plating chemicals and ask them to come in and work with you please. Good luck.

Mr Purohit

The specs you have listed are entirely possible indigenously, that is within India.. You need to connect with a qualified supplier / provider of Plating chemicals where these issues are resolved in an appropriate manner.
