Welcome to IM
Don't have much about rock-climbing site though around Hyderabad there seem to be lot of potential. You may get in touch with Society to Save Rocks and ask them though their purpose is orthogonal to yours but related.

Bouldering... nice!

Thanks for that save the rock suggestion. Just requested for a book they publish. But would be nice if I can find real cliffs and crags.

Hey good to know. Awesome for Hyd.

Just as a clarification, rapelling isn't an adventure 'sport'. It's a skill (but again a potentially hazardous skill if not learnt or executed with care). Skill that complements activities such as climbing, caving, canyoneering, etc.
