1) Documents to be carried for immigration check?

Passports (including dependendents),chest x-rays and dully filled immigration(port of entry)forms,which will be given/provide in the flight before landing.

2) Type of questions asked at the immigartion check?

3) How much wait can be carried in luggage, per passport?

Depends on the flight you booked ,check with travel agent and also it is mentioned on ticket.

4) How much foreign currency can be carried ?

5) How do i transfer funds from India without a Bank account in the UK?

Best option is Traveller Checks or ICICI/HDFC Travel card

6) Any other tips?

Carry all the necessary medicines or creams and also for fever/stomach ache/headache/motions/body pains/vomiting etc..like first aid kind of kit.

Also make sure if you/family using spectacles ,carry extra new set .Because the spectacles are expensive in London.

Better to make it as International for your driving license.

Make sure Carry thermal wares.

remember money of any currency with an equivalent value of 10,000 euros or more must be declared or it may be seized by Customs official if you are entering the UK from a non-EU country.
