My motherboard has a USB type E header for connection to a front Type C socket but my cabinet doesn't have a Type C front port.

Amazon has Type E to Type C connectors but they start from about 1k upwards. I think this is too much. AliExpress has them for as low as $1 (INR 84). If our countries' leaders could resolve our differences and open up AliExpress to Indians again, I'm sure some sellers will offer the connector at this price with free shipping.

So, if anyone has this type of connector that they're willing to sell for a reasonable price, please let me know.

Check once in banggood as it's again accepting shipping to India since a week.
 
I checked at Banggood before posting here but didn't find it there. Finding a minor item like this depends on using just the right search term, so it's possible that I missed it. I'll search again later.

The header on my motherboard is USB 3.2 Gen 2 which is rated for 10 Gps and I want to make it accessible.
 
Alibaba is worth a shot as I found these connectors there as well. Can you try talking to suppliers with a 1/2 MOQ and see how much the total will be with shipping?
