Indian Navy puts out RfI for next-gen missile vessel

Speaking of VL Antiship missiles .... Kongsberg and Lockheed Martin are working together to integrate the JSM missile (a varian of the NSM) with the MK 41 vertical launch system.
NSM is just under 4m and could fit with a 5.3 m MK41 Self defence launcher.
I.E. about 3m shorter than Brahmos in a VLS. Now that could fit a missile boat quite well!

Kongsberg showcased a Vertical Launch Joint Strike Missile (VL JSM) during AUSA 2014

I guess the pic, Sudhir has posted is not about this ship but some russian missile boat maquette, OSA class probably.
No, a Project 1241 Molnya (NATO: Tarantul) class missile boat. Veer is a Indian built version of that.
Derived from that missile boat is an ASW patrol boat Project 1241.2 Molniya-2 a.k.a. Pauk class aka Abhay class

Displacement: 220 long tons (224 t) full load
Length: 42.6 m (139 ft 9 in)
Beam: 12.2 m (40 ft 0 in)
Draught: 1.5 m (4 ft 11 in)

INs coastal Veer and Abhay classes are double the displacement. Khukri class is 5 times the displacement and Kora 6 times.....

IN is looking for something quite a bit bigger, which ocean going capabilities and enough endurance to operate with fleet units. Notice Khukhi and Kora corvette frequently joined larger IN surface combattants in foreign port visits e.g. to Singapore, Philippines but also to e.g. Malta. No way these dinky 022s could do that.

8 anti ship missile and

this Finnish Hamina As part of its power plant consists of two diesel engines 16V 538 TV93 (total capacity of 7,550 liters. With.) German firm MTU, each of which works through a reduction gear for two reversible water-jet propulsion.

The base consists of four arms RSA container launchers (PU) anti-ship missiles MTO-85M. This missile created by the Swedish company SAAB based SIC RBS-15 Mk 2. The main difference from the layout is improved turbojet engine, by means of which the largest range of fire increased by 50% — up to 150 km. In addition, boat equip a 57-mm gun mounts Office "Bofors", the installation of a vertical run on eight anti-aircraft missiles (SAMs) close deeds "Umkhonto" South African firm "Denel", also with 2 12.7mm machine guns. The solution provides anti-sabotage tasks devyatistvolny grenade "Elma".

The structure of electronic tools include three-coordinate radar (SART detection of air and surface targets TRS-3D/I6-ES (maximum detection range of air targets 90 km), as well system management of fire means "Tseros 200" radar, television, thermal stations and the laser rangefinder. Boat is also equipped with underkeel and dipping sonar stations.

Processing of data from the designated radio equipment or external sources, and target designation systems guns carried by ASBU ANCS-2000. In total, between 1998 and 2007 built four RCA-type "Hamina".
