It's,more likely due to a shortage of shells on the world market with buyers getting what they can from where they canI am smelling something burning..... especially after how our western neighbor supplied shells performed in Ukraine......

Where did you get this from? Indian shells have just started appearing that to with markings from 2023 production lines. The war has been going on far longer.
Ukrainian Front, a handle on social media X, posted photos and videos of 155 mm artillery shells being used by the Ukrainian forces. “Ukrainian military personnel work inside the Polish 155-mm self-propelled howitzer AHS Krab. It is interesting to note that this is the first time I have seen such 155 mm artillery shells,” the Ukrainian Front posted. The account has been a window into the Ukrainian battlefront.
This was from at the start of the year.
They came from a third party .
After the reports came out your government quickly denied this incident as any part of an official capacity not to harm relations with Russia.
India on Thursday dismissed reports that artillery shells made in the country had been supplied to Ukraine by a European nation, with external affairs ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal saying there had been no such exports.
Asked about the matter at a regular media briefing, Jaiswal said: “On the question regarding artillery shells, one thing is very clear. We’ve also seen some media reports in this regard. We can categorically say that we have not sent any of this artillery ammunition to Ukraine.”
He added, “Not exported and not sent.”
Jaiswal’s response came a day after external affairs minister S Jaishankar and his Ukrainian counterpart Dmytro Kuleba discussed the conflict in Ukraine and ways to take forward cooperation between the two sides. This was the first formal contact between the two countries in several months.
India has consistently pushed for a return to dialogue and diplomacy to end the Russia-Ukraine conflict while refraining from any public criticism of the Russian invasion. It has also delivered several consignments of humanitarian aid to Ukraine.

So where did you pull this one from? Pakistani shells have worked well in Ukraine and have have been pretty much supplied since the start of the war due to the close ties the nations have in defense, primarily through US private firms.
Sure there has been a few reports about a bad batch of rockets, but most Pakistani sent ammunition has performed well.
Here;
Much of the light armoured vehicles that the Russian forces have lost in the war, as per sources on the ground, have fallen to 12.7×99 MM armor piercing cartridges that are being supplied to the Ukrainian and other armed groups present in the region by Pakistan.Pakistan has also supplied ammunition for the field guns and howitzers that are being used by the combined Ukraine and NATO forces against Russia.
Sources told The Sunday Guardian that apart from the ammunition for weapons that are intended to target tanks and machines, the military supply received from Pakistan includes 12.7×108 mm bullets that are used in heavy machine guns, 40 MM rounds that are used in rocket-propelled grenade launchers and ammunitions for multiple barrel rocket launcher systems.It has also dispatched 130 MM and 155 shells that are used in field guns.Apart from these ammunition, the Pakistan government has sent 7.62×54mm bullets that are used in rifles and machine guns, which have been traditionally built in Russia.

"Pakistan exported arms worth USD 13 million in 2021-22, while these exports reached USD 415 million in 2022-23,” it added.
Islamabad said that Pakistan has maintained a policy of “strict neutrality” amid the war and did not provide Ukraine with any arms or ammunition in that context.
During a visit to Pakistan this July, Ukrainian foreign minister Dmytro Kuleba also rejected reports that Pakistan was supplying arms to Ukraine to support its military.
Did Pakistan sell weapons to Ukraine amid economic crisis? What report claims
Russia-Ukraine War: Islamabad has, however, denied that it has provided any ammunition to Ukraine.
So where did the Pakistani shells fail? Virtually all these reports come from trashy Indian sources like these;

I posted a pic as well, so what does it mean? The shells are quite new in their use and even that has been outright denied by your government.

You think India would directly or even indirectly arm the Ukraine ?
No, we were getting discount of Billions of $ in crude oil coming from Russia. Why to poke unnecessarily.
Pakistan gets chance because India leaves space due to own motives, not because Pakistan has something superior to sell.
For example.
India just banned exporting rice. Should Pakistan step up?
The question is what is more important: foreign exchange reserves or affordable food?

The Army also awarded three international companies contracts – NitroChem SA in Poland, Solar Industries India Ltd. and IMT Defence in Canada.
