Amith, the skins are typically located in Portals/XXX/Skins where XXX could be _default, or a number or the name of a Portal.
I can’t recall if all the skin paths are stored in the database. You may need to look at the database in SQL Server and take a look.
Otherwise just write some VB to look at the file system in that area, look for the Skins folder and any folder name within the skins folder is a skin package. Any .ascx file within that folder is an available skin.
May help:
