Thanks vinny!
One more question: Are there any other formalities except for an in-person interview?

One final question: Does my father need to be registered as a British citizen in order for him to pass on British citizenship to me in this case?

My father is also Indian national having an Indian passport and residing in Indian since 1972.
However, he was born in the UK in the year 1964 when my grandparents(who are also Indian citizens and residing in India) were living there on work visas.
Your father was automatically British otherwise than by descent, by virture of his birth in the UK.
