I'd examine the gear closely -- I went on a company outing to Jim Corbett Park some years back that included some rappelling and running a zip line from a bridge to the river bank. The climbing ropes and hardware were total crap, old and frayed stuff that I wouldn't have trusted more than a few meters off the ground (or in this case a few meters off the river).

@Puchoo....Wanderlust's own site talks about hot air ballooning in Rajasthan, not paragliding.
Manali, Naukuchiatal, and Billing are popular destinations for paragliding. The last is the 'paragliding capital' of these parts, though I don't think there's any permanent setup there for casual visitors.
