I have made the move so I can tell you its not worth it. Manchester is still an expensive place and 65k base is decent for a single person in a MCOL city but if you have aspirations of saving similar percentage as India, you can forget it (unless you're confident your partner will be working here as well). You'll also likely need a car in Manchester as public transport is not at same levels with London.
Another struggle with UK economy is hikes/bonuses are terrible. What Indians take for granted - double digit growth and very low bar for promotions, its completely opposite in UK due to very stiff competition, saturated market and declining economy.
On top of this, the constant fear of layoffs for this year do not make it a sensible move at all. Delay by a year if you can.
