Your phone's/laptop/device charging block should have an input voltage range marked on it. If it said 110-240v you do not need a voltage converter. You will need a plug adapter
Anker (and others) sell multi-device charging blocks that handle 110-240 input voltage range. You could pick one of those up and save the weight of carrying two separate blocks. ofc, check that the block will charge your laptop and phone

^^ what they said. I haven't seen a phone or laptop charger that wasn't 100-240V in at least 10 years if not 15.
Also, the majority of Indian hotels that foreign tourists would find themselves in have "universal" outlets that will fit Indian, UK, European and North American plugs. If you're coming from the U.S. it's not a bad idea to carry a 2-prong "europlug" adapter (which will fit well enough in the 6A "small" Indian outlet), but you likely won't need it.
