I don't think much bigger if they are bigger. Why not just call them destroyers at that point.
The heaviest FREMM/FFG-X are about Vizag displacement.
If IN wants to move frigates into 7k - 8k ton displacement and move destroyers from 8k ton - 10+k ton etc....its still frigates that would not be much bigger than Kolkata/Vizag destroyers.
