Amitoj, take your indian licence for now. When you reach there give a driving test after taking 2-3 lessons. Most people from TI who used to go to states used to do this. If they passed the test on first instance the whole process used to get completed within 2-3 days of arrival. An interesting observation though. People who had seldom driven cars in India usually cleared the test on first go, because they did not have much to unlearn and as most cars there are automatic, learning driving is no big deal!
