Suzuki Wagon R Brake Caliper Issue

The right side brake caliper is getting stuck leading to overheating of the caliper, pads and the entire wheel assembly hub, rim, tire, cv joint etc. . I can literally smell the rubber components like cv joint boot and other boots on the caliper overheating. This happens even after a relative short drive with not much brakes used at all. A while back I had the inner seal of the caliper piston replaced which seemed to have rectified the issue temporarily but it is back now. Also there is a loud thak sound from the brake assembly upon hard braking. The shims for the brake pads are installed and when I inspect it visually nothing seems out of place. I am curious if someone has faced the same o r similar issue? Has anyone rebuilt the caliper replaced piston, seals, boots, slide pins, greased slide pins o r know if the rebuild kit is available in market. Unfortunately I was unable to source any such kit from Islamabad.
