English language test requirements.

Hi

So basically I have read a ton of information online but still can't figure out if I need to pass another English test or not. I have ILR which was issued on 18 April 2013. I have passed IELTS Cambridge ESOL test on 20 Oct 2010 at C1 level (this at the time satisfied Tier 1 visa requirements). The awarding body for the test is Cambridge ESOL which it seems is on the latest published list of approved test organisations.
I have also passed Life in UK test (for my ILR) on 27 Oct 2011.
The gov.uk website tells me that the IELTS test must be specifically "IELTS for UKVI" and no more than two 2 years old, with the following exception:

"You can use a B1 level qualification that’s run out if you’re applying for citizenship and it was accepted when you settled in the UK.
It doesn’t matter if the B1 level test you took isn’t on the current list of recognised tests. You don’t need to take another test."

Now I don't remember if I ever had to provide my IELTS test certificate when I was applying for ILR, but I'm certain that I never passed any other English tests. Also the test is C1 level (not B1 as in the requirement above), but I assume that should be fine since it's higher than B1?
I am not sure if the kind of test I did was "IELTS for UKVI" (there is nothing on the test certificate which says so), but it was at the time a recognised qualification for Tier 1 visa application.

Would this be enough to apply for naturalisation or do I have to apply for another test?

Thanks,
Eldar

You need to do another test. ESOL is no longer accepted.

The requirement to submit English test for citizenship came into affect on 28th October 2013, so anyone who applied for ILR on or after this date, don't need another test for citizenship as they met the requirement for ILR already.
