So basically 3 in service aircraft? How is India going to arm a squadron at this pace. By the time you have enough aircraft, LCA would be obsolete. I understand there is no flight refueling and no BVR missiles?

Sweet.
Any info on how many Derby Missiles we have?
(IIRC, these Derby missiles are the Sea Harrier's retirement present to the Tejas)

Still an old article
Indian navy poised to sign Derby missile deal
- 22 February, 2005
- SOURCE: Flight International
The Indian navy is close to concluding a deal to upgrade its 17 BAE Systems Sea Harrier FRS51 carrierborne fighters, with the integration of Rafael's Derby beyond visual-range air-to-air missile at the heart of the project. The navy expects to shortly sign a $25 million contract for 20 Derby missiles, plus six practice rounds and associated equipment in a deal that will represent the Israeli firm's first sale of the radar-guided weapon to India.

Tejas is Now ready for Combat
The Air to Air Refueling and Gun trials will happen later
BVRAAM is the most crucial aspect of a Fighter Plane

Tejas successfully demonstrates 'Air-to-Air Beyond Visual Range missile firing capability' in Chandipur
New Delhi :
India's indigenous marvel in the air, Tejas, successfully demonstrated an Air-to-Air Beyond Visual Range missile firing capability in Chandipur, Odisha on Friday.
The LCA Tejas developed by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited, an Indian single-seat, single-jet engine, multi-role light fighter designed by the Aeronautical Development Agency for the Indian Air Force and Navy made its debut in Octover, 2016.
The lightweight, supersonic, multi-role single seat fighter was inducted in Indian Air Force’s 45 squadron ‘Flying Daggers’ in July last year.
Tejas: Top 10 things to know about India’s indigenous marvel in the air
1. Developed by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited, Tejas is an Indian single-seat, single-jet engine, multi-role light fighter designed by the Aeronautical Development Agency for the Indian Air Force and Navy.
2. HAL and ADA handed over the first two Tejas aircrafts to Indian Air Force on July 1, 2016.
3. The new jets will make up the 'Flying Daggers' 45, the name of the first squadron of the Light Combat Aircraft (LCA) programme, which began in the 1980s to replace India's ageing MiG-21 fighters.
4. Tejas has a pure double delta wing configuration (wing root leading edge sweep 50°, outer wing leading edge sweep 62.5° and trailing edge forward sweep 4°), with no tailplanes or canard and a single dorsal fin.
5. It integrates technologies such as relaxed static stability, fly-by-wire flight control system, multi-mode radar, integrated digital avionics system, composite material structures, and a flat rated engine.
6. It is the smallest and lightest in its class of contemporary supersonic combat aircraft.
7. The Tejas is the second supersonic fighter developed by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) after the HAL HF-24 Marut. As of 2016, the Tejas MK1 was in production for the Indian Air Force and the naval version was undergoing flight tests for Indian Navy.
8. The projected requirement for IAF is 200 single-seat fighters and 20 twin-seat trainers, while the IN expects to operate 40 single-seat fighters.
9. Initially being stationed at Bangalore, the first squadron will be placed at its home base at Sulur, Tamil Nadu.
10. Saturday (Oct 8) is the first public appearance of Tejas in Hindon Air Show, organized on the occasion of 84th foundation day of Indian Air Force.
Just says successful without any evidence.

Tejas Successfully Test Fires Derby Air-to-Air Beyond Visual Range Missile
Tejas, the Light Combat Aircraft today successfully demonstrated an Air-to-Air Beyond Visual Range (BVR) missile firing capability by releasing Derby Air-to-Air BVR missile in RADAR guided mode. The missile launch was performed in Lock ON after Launch mode for a BVR target in the look down mode and the target was destroyed.
The objective of the test was to assess the Derby integration with aircraft systems on-board Tejas including the aircraft avionics, fire-control radar, launchers and Missile Weapon Delivery System and to verify its performance.
The test was conducted on a Manoeuvrable Aerial Target at the Interim Test Range (ITR), Chandipur. The sensors at ITR also tracked the target and missile.
A safe separation was followed by missile guidance towards RADAR acquired target. The flawless launch was demonstrated with all on-board systems performing satisfactorily and the missile scored a direct hit on the target with complete destruction of it.
The test firing achieved all its planned objectives. The Derby firing is a major step towards clearing BVR capabilities on LCA aircraft for FOC.
