As far as IELTS is concerned. There is no difference between British Council and IDP. The exam is constructed by Cambrdige ESOL and conducted by these two bodies. :)

IELTS was invented by the University of Cambridge, British Council and IDP all together. It so happens that in certain countries the British Council is in charge of IELTS exams and in other countries IDP runs IELTS exams, and then there are countries where both the British Council and IDP offer IELTS exams, which people find confusing and are not sure where to go.As for the other two parts, namely Writing and Speaking, it is not that simple. In some countries people are telling me that the exams at IDP are easier than at the British Council, but since the exams are the same, it can only mean one thing – the staff, the examiners who do the grading of Writing and Speaking are giving more favorable marks, compared to staff elsewhere. This is the only explanation I can think of. read less

Where can I meet people to practice my English with?
Just as you did with Hindi, irrespective of grammar right or wrong, keep speaking in English to people around, naturally, as situation permits. Society would help correct. That's it.

Do you get a command on the English language by joining spoken English classes in India?
You wont get a command just by joining spoken English classes. A lot of things come into play here, practice, dedication, book reading.
