Yes this is gestational diabetes
you need to follow a diabetic diet
Go for proper sugar monitoring
Maintain fasting that sugar less than 95 and post lunch sugars less than 140
A normal hba1c indicates that you are not diabetic but when your body is challenged with 100 gm glucose it is unable to tolerate it so this is just gestational diabetes
Walking and a diabetic diet would be the preliminary treatment

I don't think you will be labelled as a case of Gestational Diabetes with these reports.
Your HbA1c is normal. Your glucose levels at 1, 3 and 3 hours are marginally raised.
You should get your 75 gm Glucose challenge test done at about 18-20 weeks and consult a Gynaecologist.
In the meantime you should follow dietary advice regarding blood sugar levels.
