The Student Visa procedure for the UK is fairly simple. The visa can be obtained for the British High Commission in Delhi and the British Deputy High Commissions in Mumbai, Chennai and Kolkata. Students need to provide a CAS statement (Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies), sufficient funds to pay for their tuition fees as well as living costs in the UK and a letter confirming their return to India post graduation from their course.
