I was confused with a 3 carrier navy for indian plus having Mig29+Rafale-M there is not much roam left for TEDBF as the number would be so small for developing a new fighter. But as you mentioned 6 carriers, yes things are clear now.
The MiG-29Ks will just about manage to last till 2035. That too with an airframe structural upgrade that will be needed within this decade. The extreme rigours of carrier landings are not easy to handle. The MiG-29K, while it's safety record has been very good, needs upgrades.
