You can get 45% discount on Supreme & Ashirvad products. I have used Ashirvad pipes and they have their own gum for fixing pipes.
For bathrooms, I have used Dr.Fixit when laying tiles. (and also during filling concrete).

@mahesh, I used Dr. Fixit Pidiproof LW+ for waterproofing.

Pertaining to the prices of diverter, it depends on the brand that you will prefer. ESS is cheaper else Jaguar is good. Just visit any vendors. They offer 18% discount Net on Jaguar products. Other brands I am not sure on the prices.

@Mahesh, I am using rain showes in my bathrooms, which also has diverters. My plumber informed me that Pressure pump is not required.
What he did was: he used 2 inch CPVC pipes from the Main tank running across the floor and then he has connected 1 inch pipes to it for bathrooms. He said this will help in receiving good pressure. When checking on taps, there is a good pressure, however I have not fixed the Rain shower to check if it works as intended. Need to wait and watch once he gets it fixed.

JollyRogers, that's a nice piece of information. Thanks.

Just to confirm, the bathroom where you plan to have the rain shower is on which floor? I'm given to understand that if the rain shower is to be put in a bathroom which has about 25 to 30 ft height difference with the water tank, then the pressure pump may not be needed. However, if the bathroom happens to be on, say, top floor and the level difference with water tank is less than about 20ft, then the water tends to come out at a much lower pressure unless one uses a pressure pump.

This is what I've heard from a few plumbers and Hardware shop folks and may not be the actual case. It would be good if someone who's already used a rainshower can comment.
