My Spouse today forgot to handover the TB test report while submitting the application at VFS office India. . It was not asked by the VFS officers too. Will it impact VISA decision? Will homeoffice reject the application ? or Is there any chance for home office to refer back and ask us to upload the TB test again ?

It is a well stated requirement and there are reports of refusal because of this.
However, for a CW who complies with the guidance, it is required that if anything is amiss the applicant should be asked for it before decision is made but not much of the CW appear to do that.

When did you submit your application? Caseworker maybe could trigger evidence flexibility if it is the only document missing but it is very subjective.

My spouse & child attended the Biometric in India yesterday. All other documents were uploaded other than the TB test. Is there anyway I can contact the UK home office decision making team regarding this ? I don't want the dependent visa to get rejected due to this.

I will recommend you to use the assisted scanning for all your documents to scan all documents you have previous self uploaded again as it's worth using this since you can't rely on the caseworker to trigger evidence flexibitliy in this case.
Follow the link
https://visa.vfsglobal.com/ind/en/gbr/s ... -documents
Settlement Applications
"If you are applying for a settlement visa, there are three options available for you to submit your supporting documents:
For a fee you can, at any stage in the submission process, choose the Document Scanning Assistance Service at the Visa Application Centre;
Customers applying under the Windrush scheme or making an application for Family Reunion under Part 11 of the Immigration Rules are eligible for free Document Scanning at the Visa Application Centre. All other customers will need to pay for this service by adding Document Scanning Assistance to the basket when they book their appointment.
You can upload your supporting documents online free of charge. If you wish to self-upload your supporting documents, you should refer to the document checklist you received as part of your online application on GOV.UK, so you know which documents are needed, and follow the instructions on the document upload pages. You are responsible for uploading supporting documents for the correct category, so please follow the document upload instructions carefully;
For added convenience, customers with a sponsor, agent or representative in the UK can send supporting documents to the Birmingham Scanning Hub at the address set out below, or can deliver documents in person to the Scanning Hub or our Edinburgh and London offices (addresses below)."
