find out the nearest place that issues you a Canadian medical. the file no that is provided during your medical is the first thing you need. it takes a month to process.
look out for a school in Canada from the transportcanada website where you can give the rt and the cpl conversion exam. get in touch with the school authorities they will guide you further.
goodluck!

Canadian RT
I think its a great idea to go get the Canadian RT. It is direct conversion for CDN RT for sure. The CDN exam is very simple and short, if you go to a flying school they will give you the exam right there and apply to Industry Canada for the RT. I got mine in 2 weeks. Worked out fine for me but converting it with Ministry of Com. in Delhi took a very long time.
Good Luck

Canadian Rt
You can go to Brampton flying school they will issue u Invitation letter(Free) & exam Fee(RT) just $20 from School & den you have to go for Transport Canada CPL conversion exam which is again easy but not as RT..So go ahead & just get Canadian CPL & RT it's easy & simple..You will get Indian Rt for almost 5 years(validity of CPL).Great option..

RTR (P) will be valid only for 5 years as they give it on the basis of canadian CPL which is nowadays issued only for 5 years. so every 5 years you need to renew CPL and hence the RT as well.
RTR (c) is only if you get canadian RT and give part I in india
RTR (A) if you give both part 1 & 2 in india. No conversion business here.
RT exam is held in any designated school. For CPL you will have to visit TC office as they will look at your FAA documents. But if you plan you get give both on same day.
Once you get your canadian RT and CPL just submit with form AF-I to WPC. It will take anywhere from 3 weeks to months before you get your RTR-P.

Cad RT test fee
Someone above mentioned that the Canadian RT test fee is around $20. Just wanted to let y'all know it's around Cad $280-290 including taxes etc. I forget the correct amount, but it's definitely not 20 bucks.

canadian cpl exams are okay , not that bad , get yourself a copy of From The Ground Up and that should be good enough . Although you might need a class or two in chart navigation if you are not very good with it , also you need a copy of CAR's for canada which is important for regulations . Met is easy with good no. of questions on frontal systems .
That is the most i remember , i am not sure about conversion from US to TC CPL requires a flight check or not , in case it does you need to practice some spins too .
All the best !

The cpl conversion test costs $35 and like previously mentioned needs to be taken at a TC Office. I did the RT at Brampton flying school. You can always email or call them and find out what they charge but for me it came out to in the $280s canadian. Good luck!
Btw no flight check needed for FAA to TC cpl conversion.

you need to look at the CARs for CPL conversion as mentioned in the conversion study guide
Recommended Study Material for the FAA Conversion Examination - Transport Canada
I read from CAR and TC AIM. Also give free sample test on FREE Online PSTAR Practice Exams
For RT you can get the study guide from
