Try this , it should work:
 
NOT(REGEX(Indian_Phone_Number__c, "[7-9]{1}[0-9]{9}"))

Let me know if you still have issue.

Anjaneylu please check Your validation rule again You Write "[7-9]{1}{0-9]{9}" and correct is "[7-9]{1}[0-9]{9}".
The Square brackets [ ] Shows the range and { } for repitation right.

Phone validation is quite complex subject. You can check out the code and docs for libphonenumber to get some insight. I think using a libphonenumber (http://appexchange.salesforce.com/appxListingDetail?listingId=a0N3A00000G12oJUAR) port to parse/validate the number in the apex trigger would give you a more precise result. Regex will not handle all possible cases.

I am creating screen flow in which validating input on phone no.
Used number field and formula  in that (NOT(REGEX({!Phone_No}, "[7-9]{1}[0-9]{9}")). )
But getting a warning saying: 
The formula expression is invalid: Incorrect argument type for function 'REGEX()'.
and if i am using text field then it is not validating my input.
Can anybody help?
