I have asked Indian Airlines if I can board the said plain, as per them I can if i do not have check in baggage. This info i have gathered from there counter at Delhi airport. Also with westjet, as per them as well i can board from Paris, given that I remain at airside only. I don't think there should be any other issue now. is there?

No, that’s not possible. You will need a visa to be able to go through border control, claim your luggage, and re-check it.
Transit without visa (TWOV) in CDG only works if you stay airside (“international area”). But even if you didn’t have checked luggage and did not need to go through passport control, it’s unlikely an airline would let you board the first flight without a visa for France, as in the case of separate tickets they would most likely consider that your final destination is France.
You’ll either have to apply for a visa, find a connecting flight (on the same ticket), or find another connection airport (I believe the UK could be an option, but that’s a topic for another question).
