You do not need a pin (ie person nummer) but you need to have a residential visa. If you go for a private school you will need the pin to get the schooling subsidized by the government. Schooling is mandatory so if your child is 7 and you live permanently you need to enroll him/her as soon as possible as you otherwise break the law. More information about the school system can be found from here:

There are plenty of indian grocery stores. When you know where you will be living google can find the closest ones.

 

Not sure what you mean by medium school. Your child would be starting in primary school (grade one). If you choose english school then you can choose between government run school or private ones. There are several schools in the stockholm area to choose from. (here one example: Kista International School - Future Competence in a Global WorldKista International School - Future Competence in a Global World).

Regarding the person number it would be good to get those as soon as possible because they impact a lot of things. You cannot get salary/pay taxes/register your living etc without that.

You need to apply for the number within 3 months after your move.

There are basically three kind of schools, the municipa/government run and they are for free (and there are some that have english education), the "free school" (friskola) that are private but not allowed to take any fees (the government fund these) and totally private ones. For the "free school" there may be some issues with the pin but should not be an obstacle as you have applied for it. You have to enroll the child anyway to school now as you are breaking the law keeping the child out of school. Contact the school administration in the municipality where you are going to live and they can guide you.
