As Iranians had announced openly in January and again March they would flight test Simorgh stage 1, I'd not be surprised they did exactly this on April 19.
This message reflects my personal opinion based on open sources of information.

Some screen grabs. Looks like they are investigating two different designs.

Just noticed a model of the PSLV in the background at 3:15. Are they planning to use this rocket to launch??

I don't think they'll use PSLV for their capsule. Simorgh should be capable for suborbital launches. Maybe Iran is purchasing a GEO communications satellite from India, or have PSLV launch their own GEO comsat. In nine years, Iran might have a big enough rocket to launch the E1 capsule to orbit.

It is a common practice for delegations of space agencies and company to bring models on officila visits. There is  Japanese model of H-2 in the office of the director general of the Israeli space agency. It is NOT because Israel is considering a launch on Japan's launcher.

Iran's talks with Eutelsat, Intelsat, Sputnik, Asiasat and SCS satellite operators belonging to the European and Asian states, including France, Britain, Russia, China, South Korea and Japan, and said, "After these negotiations and inking the initial contract, we intend to buy a remote sensing and a telecommunication satellites."

I think what they are saying is SharifSat by 20 March 2017 and then two other satellites by 20 March 2018.
