I applied for my UK visa from a country where there is no TB certificate submission requirement but hold a passport of a country that requires one if you apply from there.
So if you are applying for UK visa from Belgium / the EU you will not need a TB test.
Got my visa without applying for a TB certificate and when questioned at Heathrow on visa activation I told them there was no requirement for a TB test for the country I am applying from.
But here is where you and me are different....... you are travelling into a country with TB risk (india) and this might cause concern to UKBA.
If you want to be safe you can get a TB test from an authorised clinic in India (Belgium one will not be useful since you travelled to India) and keep that with you when you travel to the UK.
Alternatively, you can just travel without it and if they have any concerns they will test you at the border.
