The decision was announced after Indian Foreign Minister Pranab Mukherjee held talks with British Foreign Secretary Margaret Beckett on the first day of her week-long visit to India.
"We... have agreed to a meeting of our experts in the area of protection of critical national infrastructure including the mass rapid transport system and similar infrastructure," Mukherjee said.
In July 2005, 52 people were killed in suicide attacks by four British Muslims on three London subway trains and a bus.
"There are shared concerns on terrorism," Beckett said, adding that British and Indian officials were working with each other "for greater protection of the mass rapid transport infrastructure."
Indian and British police specialising in counter-terrorism are scheduled to meet this month in Mumbai, India's financial capital, to pool experience in combating terror.
Beckett, whose country is the third largest investor in India, also singled out climate change as a key issue on which both nations could work together.
Britain unveiled a landmark report on the economic implications of climate change earlier this week, and wants a global deal to cut carbon emissions
within two years -- with India, China and the United States in the firing line.
India and China signed and ratified the Kyoto Protocol on climate change but are not included in targeted emissions cuts because they are considered developing nations.
India has said it would accept help to reduce carbon emissions but would not accept any binding cuts.
