I am sorry that I don't have a list of suitable laboratories in India, but your son's doctor should be able to help. If his present level of insulin need continues, however, it doesn't really matter which type he has because the goal will be to keep blood sugars as near to normal as possible. Puberty can be a difficult time, but the principles of good control are the same as at any other age.
Details are rather beyond the scope of an e-mail.
