Generally, it is legal to record a phone call conversation on your own mobile phone if you are part of that conversation.

Academic query, state material facts of the problem if any.

Tapping of phones is illegal.
Recorded phone call is accepted as evidence under Indian evidence act.

suppose a person unknown to me began abusing me. In that case if I record the conversation of myself and that unknown person, will be illegal under any law of India ?

1. Recording of Telephone conversations of "anybody", is neither legal nor illegal and is useless in a court of law.

2. It can serve, at the maximum as a "persuasive & threat" and subject to certain parameters, even as a secondary evidence.
