It is nothing to do with any market.
You just need to select the right broker 1) which is proposing the Indian market symbols, and 2) which is proposing those symbols for trading.

 

I made an experiment - I created demo account with the MT4 broker (this broker is proposing Indian market symbols for trading; there are many brokers who are proposing this kind of symbols) - 


 

and I used Moving Average EA in strategy tester, every tick in visual mode (this is default EA in MT4; you will receive this EA together with MT4) -


 
So, Metatrader 4 (and the Strategy Tester) works for Indian market (and for any other markets as well).
You just need to select the broker who is proposing the symbols for trading.
The brokers' discussion is prohibited on the forum, so you may need to select/choose the broker by yourself sorry.
 

And .. just to finish my example with Metatrader 4 - read the following -

.. and look at the following thread -
