Your Indian degree should suffice. Just see if your degree is listed on UKBA Points Calculator and you get points for English Level Assessment. take your ORIGINAL degree cert and you should be Ok. Which university/college are you graduated from?

You still need to show
 A printout from the points-based calculator, confirming the equivalent level of the
degree, and that it was taught or researched in English. The printout must show the
degree has been awarded at least 20 points, and an additional 10 points for English
language.
