The design looks great. Thanks to tarmak007 for sharing.
That is because there is no ski-jump fitted.

Yes, it is IAC-1, this pics is the front view of pics posted in opening post.
.
Now observe the pics closely, there are two cuts on the side is visible, they are for AIR-CRAFT lift,
compare them closely with this IAC-1's CAD design.
.
.
This is not IAC-1. This CAD impression is wrong.
check this out..... (neglect the F-15s)

FROM ABOVE PICS ITS LOOKS LIKE STIL 2 3 YEARS OF WORK LEFT
That's the plan anyway, it was always planed for 2015/16, we just hoped to have the Gorshkov inducted way earlier and to have more experience with the new carrier design and fighters. Also keep in mind that N-LCA was planned for induction by 2015 too, although it might come later now as well.

Look at the 2 holes at the side, which are meant for the elevators that will lift aircrafts from the hangar to the deck!

The Indian Navy has put the security in and around Wellington Island on alert with its prized, home-grown possession the Indigenous Aircraft Carrier (IAC) -- setting out to quay at the Cochin Shipyard Ltd (CSL). While the officials at the Southern Naval Command (SNC) refused to divulge any details, Express has confirmed information that the areas in an around the current position of IAC (INS Vikrant) is very closely monitored since its float-out last
week.
Though the IAC, an air defence ship, is currently under the control of CSL, the Indian Navy is taking no chances and has increased armed patrol. Teams from the Sagar Prahari Bal are also said to be monitoring all movements closely. The naval officials in Kochi adopted an extremely diplomatic stand when Express sought information on post-IOC float-out security. The more we speak about it the more we let our plans out. With the ship at the quay, we will have our plans intact, though it is currently under the CSL custody, an official said. Even commercial vessels that operate closer to the vicinity of CSL\IAC are being put under observation.
A senior serving naval official, who agreed to part with information initially back-tracked a day later, said that his higher-ups would get get worried, if the security cover for IAC becomes a talking point.
CSL sources said that the float-out completed the Phase-I activities of IAC with the hull construction. "We have established that the vessel can float safely. There have been delays due to various equipment developing serious snags. We have addressed them and have conducted a series of underwater trials, in addition to testing all hi-end technologies time and again. The Phase-II work has begun and it mainly consists of out-fitting jobs. The platform will be re-docked again," sources said.
The Indian Navy is also planning to upgrade the security levels at its Gunnery School (INS Dronacharaya) inside the Wellington Island. Tenders have been called for the supply, installation and commission of CCTV surveillance systems
all along the periphery, including the seafront, of INS Dronacharaya. We are looking for a complete package which gives us gapless, round-the-clock and all weather security coverage. The tenders are in and we will finalize after scrutinizing the technical and price formalities, sources said.

it look like the hanger deck is going to be the entire length of the ship . good going . once again proving the forward thinking of the naval design bureau.
