[...] As already pointed out, and as you seem to have found out already, ISO-639, especially the three-letter codes is the standard. To the best of my knowledge, Unicode does not cover all ISO-639 languages. Given that the Indian languages in ISO-639 are probably a tractable number, you might be able to convince the website maintainers to abide by that standard.
