If yes, does anyone know who makes PUMA bats in England?

It depends where in the world you are! As far as I know top end English Puma bats are made by Rob Pack but I'm pretty sure top end Australian ones are made in India.... ;)

From what I have seen (after talking with few guys) some of top ends are made in India now.

Rob Pack makes them, and a damn good job he does too. May I recommend his own brand, Blue Room. :) He does one hell of a lot of work for Puma. Pretty sure he makes Kieswetter's bats.

That would make sense, with Newbery having their c6 at the time.
