reviews 2010
Have been using them on almost all my subsequent treks - (Peth/Kothaligad, Mahuli, Lohagad, to name a few and even in day to day use). They have the best grip for shoes in this price range and are reasonably sturdy.
Now, to answer your questions,
1. No, they are not waterproof. Water-resistant mebbe, but not waterproof. And I always trek in the monsoon, so a big thumbs-up from me for using them in monsoon treks.
2. Search for them at any store that sells Action Sport Shoes. I generally manage to find them fairly easily and thats quite a feat since I wear size 12s. Ask specifically for "Action Campus Trekking Shoes". They come only in 2 colors - Olive Green and Black. So you can identify them easily.

Although I have never used it the brand ACTION TREKKING has a very tough sole (PVC I guess), and may be uncomfortable, so it may take a while getting used to it, especially for people wearing running shoes most of the time. Running shoes(with rubber sole) are the most comfortable in Sahyadris as it is light, flexible has good grip and although it gets wet fast, it dries equally fast and has a breathable mesh. But I have seen people walking on moss/ algae laden rocks with ease while in their Action Trekking. The upper is made of synthetic/leather which becomes hard when the shoes dry, which may lead to blisters and could be a real pain on long treks. These shoes will easily last for 2-3 years or more. I have seen regulars use 6-7 year old pairs in really brand new condition. Overall it's a good shoe and is an amazing value for money proposition.

BATA

Bata people says they have stopped production.
The army cantonment in Kolkata has some , and it is of a different make.
Personal experience :- it gives blisters if you treks in the rains.

When allocating your backpacking budget, boots should be your first priority. A good pair of boots is expensive, but there are a few reasons that I advise spending money on them. First off, a good pair of boots is usable in many situations other than backpacking. If you decide at some point that backpacking isn't for you, you can still use them for tramping through snow to work or school, yard work, wood working, construction, camping, hiking, or any time your feet need protecting. A good pair of boots allows you to do a wide range of things safely, and it's good to have one around. Secondly, if you take care of them and don't lose them, a good pair of boots will last you 10+ years. The pair of boots I bought when I was 13 lasted me through my first year of college (when I lost them.) Thirdly, no matter where or under what conditions you are hiking, the quality of your boots will have a big impact on how much you enjoy yourself. If your boots don't work well for you, you're likely to be wincing along with blistered heels, soggy feet, and in danger of spraining your ankles. If your feet are still growing I'd recommend borrowing a pair, or buying them off someone who has grown out of them. There are other things where it is worth it to spend money, but boots are the least borrowable.
Socks
Wear a pair of wool socks over a pair of polypropylene liner socks. Don't wear cotton. The wool and polypropylene will keep your feet dry and cushioned. The liners will absorb most of the friction of your foot moving around and help prevent blisters.
