How does the information get from mainland UK to the embassy in India without leaving the country?

My understanding is that embassies and high commissions are based
on land which is considered the territory of the country to which
the embassy belongs.
So the Indian Embassy in London is actually in India while the
British High Commission in India is actually in Britain (and
therefore within the EU).
Thus a transfer to the British High Commission in India is not an
overseas transfer outside of the EU but a transfer to the Indian
Embassy in London is!
