About This Visa
Indian ordinary-passport holders need a Schengen C. Usual staff path: signed C form (PDF on the Embassy short-stay page), then a Luxembourg VFS centre in India. The Embassy of Luxembourg in New Delhi decides. Ordinary tourists do not walk into the chancery. Do not use visa.vfsglobal.com/ind/en/lux or www.vfsglobal.com/luxembourg/india — they do not load.
This is not a Belgium VisaOnWeb path. Honorary consuls cannot take visa files. Luxembourg has no job-seeker visa.
