Simone,

   It's unprojected, lat/long, in decimal degrees.

   From within the layer manager window select that map by right-clicking on
it. One of the menu options is to set the view to that map. Try this.

   I work infrequently with the ESPG codes; usually specify the location by
details. In your case I'd set a location called India-LL (for lat/long);
perhaps that's what the ESPG code represents.
