There are a few thing that need to be clarified here:
Firstly as a Hindu, the term "sin" will likely have some parameters that differ from those found in the Christian faith.
But speaking from a Christian perspective then technically a life led completely free of sin (as defined by the Bible) would, according to the law of Moses, warrant salvation.
I stress that this a theortical salvation and in practice, impossible to achieve for the following reasons:
1) If we are guilty of any of the Commandments, then we are guilty of them all. There is also no time limit. If we trangress agianst the Law at any time we are forever guilty.
2) According to the Bible if we have ever habored hatred for someone, then we are guilty under the law of "Murder" in our heart. Similarly, if we even have lustful thoughts towards the opposite sex then we are guilty of "Adultery".
3) The Law of Moses is not just the 10 Commandments, there are literlly hundreds of these laws in the Old Testament and it would include picking up sticks on the Sabbath.
The Laws of Moses as you can see are not just difficult to keep, they're impossible to keep. This is why they are referred to in the Bible as the "Curse of the Law".
Under the Law we are all condemned and this is why God provided attonement for our sins through the sacrifice of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. John 3:16 sums it up nicely:
Joh 3:16-18
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. (KJV)

Are you certain you have never sinned? If you haven't then you are perfect already and are worthy of the respect of all of us lesser humans. However, I respectfully suggest you re-examine your life to see if in fact you might be a little more human than you let on. For starters, questioning your salvation questions God, and that is a Christian sin.
The concept of being saved is Christian in origin. You should worry over the idea only if you adhere to the beliefs of Christianity.
Do you really think there are separate Christian and Hindu Gods? That implies there is more than one. In your belief system, is that possible? If not, then it is likely that the human twist on the belief systems is different and the God is one in the same. AND if your religion inspires you to do good and refain from evil, then you are already saved. Work now to live up to that.

The only way to get to heaven without Jesus, is to live a perfect sinless life ("be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect") in the book of Matthew. That said, no one can do that for the Bible says in Romans that all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.
So, technically the answer is yes, however no one can accomplish that feat.
Sin is not only something that you do that you shouldn't, it's also not doing what you should. It could be in thought (lust, anger, jealousy, etc), word (swearing, lying, etc), or deed (those actions or non actions that are sinful).
The Bible also commands us to love the Lord our God with all our heart, soul, and mind.
In James the Bible also says "You believe that there is one God. You do well, but the demons also believe, and shudder." That verse points out that just believing and knowing that God exists is not enough to get you into heaven because there certainly will not be demons in heaven!

There is no need to be saved. It has already happened. It is a foregone conclusion.
There is only one "God" if that's the name you want to use and God has no religion. God is the genderless, ominipotent, all-loving energy source which is life. God does not differentiate between us or the religion we have chosen or been indoctrinated with.
Everyone is on a different path to the same end. We are spiritual beings here to experience a human incarnation for the evolution of our soul.
At the end or "death" of this physical incarnation we will return to the source creator from which we originated as non-physical spirits. And then, mad as it seems, we will make the decision as to whether or not we want to return! Either in another form or to live the same life over again! Deja vu is a result of our living out the same life repeatedly.

I am not sure I understand this question. Saved from what? If you are not Christian than you don't believe in their hell, right? I would think you wouldn't believe in any part of their Judgement system.
If you want to be "saved" in christian terms, from christian hell or pergatory, then you need to embrace christ. I mean, can you be Hindu and go to Christian Heaven? I don't think so. I don't even think you will be able to go over for a visit - you just can't get from hindu afterlife to christian heaven.

All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God - that eliminates your ability to have never sinned. To be a Chrisitian is the simplest thing God has ever done for mankind - he sent his only son to die on the cross as a the sacrifice for our sin, which the wage of such was death, now all we have to do is believe and accept. That is the gospel summed up short and sweet. There is nothing hard, complicated or confusing about it. God doesn't set out to make it that way, only mankind adds all the confusion and complexity.

Will I be saved if I have never sinned but I am not a christian?
the Bible clearly teaches That ONE MUST be born again.
the Bible clearly teaches that all men have fallen short of the glory of God. and since you have sinned your question is void.
now if by your Hindu faith you think your perfect & without sin what would it matter to you what Jesus said?
unless your not really convinced hinduism is TRUTH?

everyone has sinned, and if you say that you haven't then that makes you a liar.
the Bible says "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." (Romans 3:23)
we all sin, everyday.. either by our actions or in our minds. don't be decieved by thinking you are without sin, look at the 10 commandments, how many of those have you broken?
have you ever told a lie? even if you were trying to be nice? then that would make you a liar. and the Bible says that all liars will have thier place in hell!
have you ever taken anything that isn't yours? even if it was a ink pen or paperclip? well, that makes you a theif!
this only 2 examples.. I'm sure if you think you will see more sins that you have commited!
to be saved is to realize that you ARE a sinner, and then ask forgivness, ask Jesus into your heart and Life.
read Romans 10:9,10
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

It depends on what religion you're talking about. I'm sure that hindus believe they will be saved if they have not sinned. But in the christian religion, no you wouldn't be saved w/o jesus. But it also depends on what church you go to. My church believes it doesn't really matter, that you can be saved.

According to general Christian doctrine (there are literally tens of thousands of different interpretations) all non-Christians will go to hell, while any Christian, regardless what he did, will be in heaven.
In other words, Adolf Hitler is in heaven if he repented and every single Jew he slaughtered is in hell.
It is a ridiculous concept and ideology, but people really choose to believe that.
Additional comment:
Of course you are following a false God, the bible said so.
