You can use TGM Plugin Activation library to let the user know about required and recommended plguins that your theme depends on.
Automatically installing plugins is not a better choice instead let the users know that X plugin
should be installed and activated in order for the theme to work properly.
If your theme requires a plugin without which it gives error then make sure to add checks for functions like so:
if(function_exists('xplugin_function')){
//code
}
