I got similar letter. I showed only 10 points in the PBS Calculator along with application. i sent the printout again showing 35 pts for qual. and 10 pts for english.
Did you submit the print-out of points based calculator at the time of application showing atleast 20points for qualification and 10 points for Level of English? If not then that may the reason they are asking for UK Naric letter. You should send the printout of points based calculator to the caseworker and tell him that this is what mentioned in the Guide, Gov.uk website and in caseworker's note.
Please see the link for caseworker's notes

I think you must send them PBS Calculator print out ASAP and Also print the PDF mentioned in the above link or use this link
https://www.gov.uk/english-language where its state that PBS Calculator recognised University are approved by NARAIC.
below is what I have copied from this link
https://www.gov.uk/english-language
Degrees taught or researched in English
You’ll need to prove your degree was both:
taught or researched in English
confirmed by UK NARIC as the equivalent of a bachelor’s, master’s or PhD degree in the UK
You’ll need your original degree certificate and one of the following:
a printout from the points-based calculator with the equivalent level of your degree and the level of English
an original letter or certificate from UK NARIC confirming the equivalent level of your degree, plus an official letter from your university with your name and degree confirming that your degree was taught in English
an original and official certificate from your university confirming the degree was taught or researched in a majority English-speaking country (except Canada).
Also when you are filling in qualification section on the PBS Calculator click on the Help Button(Help on this question (opens new window)) you can see these below wording wording. take the print out of that as well and attach it.
Points-based calculator - help
Qualification database
The information in the database is supplied to us by the National Academic Recognition Information Centre (UK NARIC). You can enter a maximum of ten qualifications and then select the one which scores the highest points.
To score points for your qualifications, your qualification must be the same as a UK Bachelor's degree, Master's degree or PhD.
Awarding institution or body
'Recognised' institutions or bodies, including universities, have their own UK degree awarding powers. 'Listed' institutions or bodies are able to provide courses which can lead to a UK degree; however, they are not able to award the qualification themselves. If you have studied for a degree at a Listed institution or body, the qualification must be awarded by a Recognised Body in order to qualify for the award of points. For details of which bodies are Listed or Recognised, please see the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills website.
In the mean time also request NARAIC to issue you the Certificate.
Hope this will give some room and time for Home office to process, if Home Office still insist they want the NARIAC certificate, I think they will write you a second letter. By this time you should have received a NARAIC Certificate.
Hope this helps!!
