If he want to buy it from someone directly, I suggest to use Localbitcoin and search for a seller near from him. But if he want to buy bitcoin from exchanges like coinbase, I guess the best choice for indian people is Unocoin and Zebpay, because they accept INR(roupie indienne) as a payment .

I have heard of Unocoin before.... I am sure he can just buy with credit card like coinbase?

Yeah sure you can buy it with credit Card and Debit Card, but he need to verify his account first. Transfer from the Bank allowed too(Axis bank/ICICI/KOTAK...)
