If you need to re-check your luggage upon landing at DXB then you'll need a visa to enter Dubai. Luckily this is a somewhat easy procedure for Indian citizens. You can either transit without visa, or request a 96-hour transit visa on arrival. Quoting from the Emirates website:
Transit - United Arab Emirates (AE)
Visa
Visa required.
TWOV (Transit Without Visa):
Holders of confirmed onward tickets for a max. transit time of 24 hours. Visa is required for transit between Dubai International Airport (DXB) and Dubai Al Maktoum International (DWC).
Visa Issuance:
A 96-hour transit visa can be obtained on arrival at Dubai (DXB), provided:
- transit time is at least 8 hours; and
- holding onward ticket to a third country; and
- holding a passport valid for at least 6 months from date of arrival. Visas are only issued as a part of a transit package together with hotel accommodation and airport transfer (paid by passenger).
If unsure what to do once you land, locate the transfer desks B and C and ask them. The DXB aiport webpage has more information on connecting flights.
