For an initial medical:
Determine if it is an initial medical assessment or a renewal medical.
Initial medicals are done when a person with a valid Class II medical applies for the first time for a Class I medical (required for a Commercial Pilot License).
If the last Class I medical is more than two years old, a fresh initial (re-initial) medical is required.
Initial medical examinations are conducted only at Indian Air Force (IAF) Boarding Centers, such as
IAM, IAF Bangalore,
AFCME New Delhi,
MEC(E) Jorhat,
11 Air Force Hospital (11 AFH) Hindon,
Command Hospital Air Force Bangalore (CHAF'B').
A valid NOC (No Objection Certificate) from the DGCA, along with an approved medical appointment, is required for these medical examinations.
For a renewal medical:
Class I medical assessments are valid for one year for individuals under 40 years of age in Multi-crew Commercial Air Transport Operations, or six months for individuals above 40 years of age in Single crew commercial air transport operations.
The renewal medical can be done anytime within one month before the expiry of the validity of the medical assessment to the date of expiry. If done earlier or later than that, an NOC is required.
The renewal medical can be done after the expiry of the validity of the previous medical, but not beyond two years since the date of the last medical, along with an NOC.
Renewal medical examinations are conducted at Indian Air Force Medical Examination Centres and by DGCA empanelled Class I Medical Examiners. The specific centres and examiners can be found on the DGCA website.
To get an appointment for a Class I Medical, the process varies depending on whether it is at an IAF Boarding Centre or with a Class I Examiner.
