There are approximately 80,000 Jews in South Africa. Roughly 68,930 of them are Caucasian, leaving 1170 or so non-white Jews in South Africa.

Approximately 3% of the population of South Africa is of Asian descent. The vast majority of these people are of Indian descent. Indians make up about 2.2% of the total population, or 3% of the non-white population. Assuming that the non-white Jewish population is distributed proportionally between various ethnic groups, we would expect that around 3% of the 1170 non-white Jews are of Indian descent.

So, based on estimated data and a lot of speculation, I would tentatively guess that there are 35 Jewish Indians living in South Africa.

You would be better off posting this in a Society category, rather than education.

There are Jews living everywhere. You probably will want to check directly with the Jewish communities in South Africa to see if they already have members originally from India.
