So is it ok to use CR9EIA-9 or the CR9EIX mentioned by you as they have a colder heat range but are cheaper than CR8EIA-9.?

The ones mentioned in the owner's manual are NGK MR8E-9. If you get these, go for them. I've been using CR9EIX for quite some time now without any noticeable difference in performance.

How frequently are you replacing your plugs??
I mean kms ?
Also is your bike a BS 6 one?

I replace the plugs every 12,000 KMs and mine is a BS-4 model.
