I'm assuming you're lacto, since you do explicitly mention eggs but not milk
(and since most indians drink milk, even the vegetarians)
Whey powder is fine. I don't really think of whey powders as "supplements",
they're not supplements any more than something like textured vegetable
protein used in various "fake meat" products is a "supplement".
Besides whey concentrate, milk and yogurt are good options. You need a fairly
substantial quantity to get a good protein intake.
