YES IT IS TAXABLE IN THE HANDS OF UK NATIONAL AS IT IS ACCRUED AND PAID IN INDIA

The accommodation, living expenses during the stay of the foreign consultant in Chennai, which could be for over two years, can be charged off as expenditure if it is directly settled by the firm in Indian rupees. It is not income for the foreign consultant.
