I dont think the set top box has any component output so you will be
limited to using the composite port. The most stable card in my
experience is dual tuner Hauppauge PVR-500 card or cheaper single tuner
PVR-150 card. Unfortunately, these cards are PCI based. There is a more
recent card with PCIe support i.e. HVR-2200.  This card is bit picky on
the motherboard with which it will work.

These cards most likely will not be available on amazon.in, but you may
find them on ebay.co.uk. Be sure to get the PAL version of the card, as
these come in both NTSC and PAL varieties.
