Same situation here. But I believe the Xorg decision to make base-extra in
rules folder might not be the issue, because this change is already released
and I was able to use Hindi(Wx) keyboard on Plasma 5.9 branch.

I have a Manjaro Mate install on another machine last updated before June 1
2017, in which changing layout works i.e.

   setxkbmap tel

gives Telugu layout

   setxkbmap dev

gives Devanagri.

   setxkbmap in

gives default Indian layout(Devanagri)

All these three comands on my Plasma 5.10.2 machine give 

   Error loading new keyboard description

I checked the rules folder in both machines:

/usr/share/X11/xkb/rules

and all files were identical. Sure, there exists a base.extras.xml separate
from base.xml consisting of all Indian language layout info. But, as noted
above, in Mate machine, changing layout works. In my Manjaro(Arch based)
install, everything was fine until 5.9 branch. Updating to 5.10 broke both
switching to any Indian layout. The widget indicator for changing layout also
does not work. I believe this is a KDE issue, not Xorg one.
