Personally,as you are transitting London (not enterering the UK) I would not have thought you would need any sort of Visa,especially as you are going back to you home country,but please check 1st, as this is only a personal opinion.
I am hoping Dom Tuk will see your post as he is excellent any Travel query.
Dom, where are you? LOL
hi rajesh,
i work in the airline industry
and i have just looked at the regulations in what we call the timatic which is a basic visa regulation that airlines use.
it states that indians transiting any UK airport that:
normal passport only - Visa Required, even when in direct airside transit. Exemptions apply when holding specific resident permits or Visas for Australia, Canada, New Zealand, USA & EEA countries...
so in answer to your question no u do not need a transit visa if u r staying at the same airport and in direct transit other wise u will need a visa.
