I tried something like that to get my free visa for an ITU meeting in 
Hyderabad - about a year after the IGF there - planning on calling in on 
the consulate on my way home from another trip.

Unfortunately the plane on that leg was cancelled [thanks, KLM] so I had 
to make a special trip the following day, so it cost me an additional 
day and about $100 in extra travel costs.

However, there was no practical way to get a suitable visa for India any 
other way, and it did indeed cost me less in both time and money than 
going down the regular route.
