TB test is required for all Indian students travelling to UK on study visa for more than 6 months. If you are travelling to UK from a country where TB is common the you must be screened.
You will be given a certificate stating you don’t have TB and it will be valid for 6 months from the date of you screening.
TB test should be undertaken from approved test clinics. Details of approved test clinics and what should you bring can be found on https://www.gov.uk/
