What was the status of both parents in the UK when the child was born?
Indian law allows a child
born with dual citizenship to retain both till the age of 18, unless the parents exercise the non-Indian citizenship by , for instance, applying for a non-Indian passport. If the parents apply for a non-Indian passport, the Indian citizenship automatically terminates. However, an Indian passport with CoE-RoA is acceptable for retaining Indian citizenship till the age of 18 years.
A child is born with dual British and Indian citizenship if at the time of his birth
- -S/he is born in the UK and at least one of the parents has Indian citizenship and at least one of the parents had either ILR or British citizenship
-S/he is born in India and one parent has British citizenship on the date of the child's birth and the other had Indian citizenship

I doubt that the Indian consulate staff would know the law in this regard in any great detail.
