It is valid for 2 years. You will need to submit the application before Aug 2015 for it to be valid. If you submit it after this, you will need a new IELTS.

I submitted the application before my ielts expired. It will expire on May 24th but my score has not been selected yet
Do I have to renew it to guarantee my application will be in the next draws or as I have submittedbefore expiry so it will be ok ?

Until you have an ITA you have not yet applied for immigration.
IF you get an ITA and submit your application BEFORE May 24th then you should be ok. If you submit your application AFTER May 24th you will need to retake your IELTS.

Yes. My IELTS expired on April 6, 2015. I got an ITA on March 27, retook the IELTS on April 18, and got the new score on April 29. If I had been able to submit my PR application when I got the ITA I would have been good, but since I had to wait for other things, I had to retake it.
