Hi Andrea
You will have to get your class 2 medical done first.
http://www.dgca.nic.in/medical/class2.pdf
This link has all the doctors listed. Check which one is appropriate for you.
After the medical tests, you’ll fill out forms and send them to Medical Cell in DGCA. To get your certificate will take some time. Mine took about 2 months.
Once you’ve that you would need to visit or call, DGCA Medical Cell and get a date for Class 1 Medical with your file number.
They can place you either in Bangalore or Delhi, depending on availability
Regarding Exams, you’ll have your urine test, sound detection, eye test, ECG. Similar tests to Class 2 medical but held at higher standards.
Since you’ve a class Medical 1, you might be eligible for a direct conversion if that is possible. I am not really sure on that. I would suggest you check with the DGCA itself.
Take Care
