Conversion ATPL to Indian equivalent

I am Interested in hearing if anyone has converted their Australian ATPL to the Indian equivalent. Any practable advice would be great.

Are the Indian airlines likley to lift the requirement to be a local for a First Officer position.

I think (and am pretty sure) it's actually a DGCA requirement for not hiring expat FO's. I don't see it changing either.

I converted my ATPL(H) to Indian ATPL(H) by doing 1 exam at Bombay airport. The first time I went to India was for a 4 week tour and for that I just had an interview in Delhi to establish I knew something about the monsoon season. However when my company wanted me to go again, I had to do the exam. This is to fly an Indian registered aircraft. When the aircraft was on the Canadian register, I used my Canadian license. Don't think you can do that any more.
