You could try a corn or wheat based litter like World's Best Cat Litter or Swheat Scoop, or a wood litter like Okocat if you want to avoid clay litter. You could also try a clay based low dust litter like Dr. Elsey's. Even though she is used to pellets the transition to a clay litter could be fine - I'd start by putting out a litter box with the new litter while still keeping the old one and if she starts using the new one take the old one away.

Some cats can definitely have issues with dusty litter, it can cause flare ups of asthma and may make your cat decide to go potty somewhere else. Though once it settles, it may not cause issues unless your cat is a very aggressive digger. I would recommend staying with the same brand of litter you used before, or you can look into non-clay litter options, like Feline Pine or Yesterday's News. If you do decide on a different type of litter, I would put it in a second litter box so that Chloe has the option to choose which type of litter she prefers.

It may be difficult to find an appropriate type but peat based or crystalline litter is least likely to aggravate respiratory issues. I recommend you keep litter trays in a well ventilated area you do not frequent often. Be aware many asthmatic people can also be sensitive to cats dander and hair

If the box is not covered I would recommend doing so but otherwise try a wood pellet based litter which can be quite similar in texture; you may need to try a few brands until you find one that is acceptable to Storm!

You can use the beach sand, you do not need to clean it. But you can also use shredded paper and wood shavings or wood pellets if available. Seeing that you are in Tamil Nadu it is likely that the heat of the day pretty much sterilises the sand anyway (I remember trying to walk on the beach in Chennai one...immediately had blisters on the soles of my feet.) However cat litter is available over the internet in India: https://www.amazon.in/Intersand-Odourlock-Cat-Litter-12Kg/dp/B00LXYHLQI https://www.amazon.in/Litter/b?ie=UTF8&node=4771538031 http://www.indiancatlitter.com/ https://www.nappets.com/cats/cat-litter/
