Vol 3 of G. N. Pant's "Indian Arms and Armour" covers armour and shields. There is also Pant's stand-alone book on shields: https://books.google.com.au/books?id=OaXQAAAAMAAJ

Other than that, Robinson's "Oriental armour" discusses them in his chapter on India: https://books.google.com.au/books?id...AQBAJ&pg=PT178

As for polearms, there is some in Elgood's "Hindu arms and ritual": http://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/...bo3705137.html

Otherwise, Stone and Egerton.

While not Indian, the section on shields in Khorasani's book on Persian arms is relevant: http://www.moshtaghkhorasani.com/bio...mor-from-iran/
