Those are ports used in file and print sharing and you do not want to allow
traffic from the internet to try and connect to those ports.

Is there any reason for touchtelindia.net to be trying to contact you and
share files or printers on your computer? If not, then DENY them
permanently. If there is, and you KNOW WHO THEY ARE, and they are somehow
related to you, call them and ask them why they're doing that. Otherwise,
avoid them like the plague; they want to steal data from your system of
worse.

I suspect it's an intrusion attempt; deny them.
