There are some traders of tandoor rocks in Old Delhi.
Or ask your local dhaba wallahs for some.
If they have a tandoor then they are bound to have tandoor rocks too.
I am somewhat positive about that though I haven't asked any myself.

Please can you post a closeup? Looks quite similar to what Sreeram uses in his heavenly tanks.
