1. Download the Dload File For Your System.
2. Download: http://www.mediafire.com/file/xxbrn6iicw683zw/DUK-RECOVERY_RAMDISK_NoCheck.img


Follow this:
1. Extract the firmware and copy the dload folder in exfat formatted SDcard.
2. Copy dload folder to your SDcard.
3. Flash the recovery:
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk DUK-RECOVERY_RAMDISK_NoCheck.img
4. Thanks to @morph. Dial *#*#2846579#*#*.

ii. Now Click on SDcard update.

It will stuck at 99% and failed but Voila! U will successfully on nougat. The bootloader will be unlocked. Then normally upgrade to b150 by system update.

I am on Oreo stable 8.0.0.322 but the rom is very buggy and a battery hog.

I would like to revert to Nougat. Would this method work for me as well?

Also, why do I need to flash recovery, wouldn't the existing recovery work?

Sorry, the link I had for Indian version is no longer active, try firmware finder or ask someone on hihonor forum [every region has different firmware, don't flash the rom of other region]. Btw, I got rid of the phone, you should too.
