CWGC are likely to know where he's buried. It'll be somewhere where maintenance of the grave couldnt be guaranteed in perpetuity.
He'll have been in hospital in India having been evacuated form Mesopotamia and my guess would be illness rather than wounds. There's a chance, therefore, that his death certificate contains more details than the usual "died of wounds". The General Register Office for the overseas certificate is I.27.235
The only other possibility would be his service papers if they have survived.
