Jagtar Singh Johal has been held in an Indian jail without conviction for more than four years.
The prime minister goes onto say that UK ministers and officials have raised concerns directly with the government of India about Mr Johal's case on almost 100 occasions.
In May, a UN working group said Mr Johal's detention was arbitrary and concluded he should be released immediately.Mr Johal's brother Gurpreet Singh Johal, a recently elected Labour councillor, described the prime minister's letter as a breakthrough.
"A strategy that leaves arbitrarily detained British nationals to rot in foreign jails is a strategy in urgent need of review."Sir Keir Starmer said: "I am pleased the British government has recognised that the unlawful detention of Jagtar in India is arbitrary and is committed to raising this case at the highest possible level.
