Assuming it isn't a typo error and you did apply on
29th July, and by home office you mean
Home Office in UK. If so, then -
I'll be really surprised if you say you applied for HSMP on 29-July! HSMP scheme was closed on 29-Jun and Tier 1 scheme introduced on 30-Jun.

Your application will not be processed and will be returned to you.
I'll be equally surprised if you say you sent a Tier 1 application to Home Office in UK!
Initial Applications wrote:How to apply if you are outside the United Kingdom
The process for applying if you are outside the United Kingdom is:
Step 1: complete a self-assessment online using our points-based calculator to find out if you are likely to score enough points.
Step 2: go to the Visa services website, which you can find on the right of this page, to find out if you must submit any personal details in the country you are applying from to find the application form.
Step 3: take or send your form(s), fee and supporting evidence to the visa application centre. You must also arrange to give your biometrics, which are usually taken at the visa application centre.
Whichever it was (Tier 1 or HSMP), if you applied on 29th July and posted the application to HO in UK, then your application is either on its way back to you in UAE or getting ready for the return journey.
