Answer
Hello, they ask bank statement in order to check if you have enough money to stay in Brazil for the period you are asking for the Visa.
I think you should have some transaction in it but I do not know if it is enough for the Consulate. Indian money should be good if it is enough!
Unfortunately it is the only document they ask for and I don' t think there is an equal one.
Why don' t you check with them?

I think I have already answered this question some days ago.
