Captured by an XDA contributor arpanbag1996, this official Android 6.0 Marshmallow OTA update (build MRA58M) is meant for Micromax Canvas A1 and can be installed via stock recovery. However, users should update their Canvas A1 to build LMY48M (Android 5.1) to apply the update.

Micromax Canvas A1 users who updated their phone to LMY48M (Android 5.1) check for Android 6 OTA update by going to Settings -> About Phone -> System update. It will take few weeks to receive the OTA notification. If you cannot wait for Google to officially release the OTA update, then you can use the manual method.
