Unless there is a problem with the contents or import rules 7 weeks' delay is unusual.

Hopefully whatever was inside is not banned or restricted for import into the UK. If so it should be returned to India but no tracking will occur.

However, the sender needs to make a claim with IndiaPost who will/should liaise with Royal Mail and UK customs.
