Does VFD load-side frequency remain constant when the line-side frequency changes by say +/- 10% ?

Yes. The incoming AC is only used to make DC so as long as the voltage is up to spec, the input frequency could easily vary over +/- 10% without problems.

In fact, most drives built for the world market are dual-rated for 50/60hz.
