On input methods - is there anything of a best practice or even a
Government notification about an input standard?
In Tamil Nadu, the govt recommends and endorses the Tamil 99 keyboard layout.

Even though Central Government has adopted Unicode as the encoding standard, the case is not the same with most State Governments. As far as I know only few state goverments (Tamil Nadu, Punjab, Kerala,...) had adopted Unicode standard. Many are still in the ASCII era.

I haven't seen any notification regarding this yet. But InScript is officially/unofficially adopted as the default input scheme. That is why it is part school syllabus in some states.

Two things I meant to add:
- The eGov standards body for India has recently notified Unicode
5.1.0 as the default standard for all eGov applications henceforth. (Sadly, their website is DoA - http://egovstandards.gov.in/) I am hopeful that this will be the start of some initiative within Government and would, hopefully, spread.
A cache of their Approach Paper on Localization is here:

And a cache their Character Encoding Standard For Indian Languages is here:
