The gecko is a large Hemidactylus species. Not sure on the skink but Egernias are endemic to Australia so it will not be a major skink.
 
I am not certain but the skink looks like it would be in the genus Mabuya of which India has a number of species.

HI all,

I would say that the gecko is most simliar to Hemidactylus flaviviridis and the skink is a Mabuya most likely carinata.

Cheers,
Scott
