That one should work, but you need at least one DK to develop with nordic anyways. You must be able to develop on a circuit that we know works, otherwise it will be very difficult to find the root causes of issues that normally arises during development.

Mouser and a few other electronics distributors have entered the Indian market in the last year or so. I believe they are located in Mumbai.

Since I need to import nRF52840 DK, it seems to be costly option for me. I believe some of the Segger JLink debugger might be suitable for my requirement. I found 'J-Link V9 Link ARM Emulator' on Amazon. Will it be suitable?

You can use the on-board J-link that comes with the DK to program and debug external boards via the Debug Out connector (J19).

For trace pin functionality see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XGmSCVgb6EM. You'll need a J-link pro to use the ETM trace functionality.

An nRF52840 DK can debug both an nRF52832 and the nRF52840 dongle. You will want to use a 10-pin needle connector.
