Thank you. Exactly what I needed. Chainring spacing works out.
Ordered the crankset, probably the last available online in India.

5mm spacing is from Sheldon Brown's article on chainline.

If you answered yes to those questions, then probably it might work. However it is square taper and those can get different chain lines when mixed and matched with different brands of BB. But if you purchased the UN-300 that is recommended for it, then you will probably be at the correct chain line for a road bike with 8 speeds.

Or are you also wanting to put different rings on it?
Both are possibilities and the chainline covers most options.
