But the criteria for age is very stringent and you must strictly abide by that.

Some banks like SBI and PNB have schemes for loan for CPL. Otherwise OBC/SC/ST Commissions give chances to such candidates belonging to their community and interested in pursuing CPL. They give loans at subsidized rates and hence candidates get a chance to pursue their dream.

CPL is not part-time training. You may take gaps as per the availability of time and money that you spend.
It is a professional training and requires an equal input of candidate as from that of the instructor or the academy.

You will be free to apply to any and every airline whose eligibility you fulfil. Bombay Flying Club or any other flying school does not provide any placement assistance with any airline. Cadet Pilot Programme can allow you a chance to get shortlisted for those airlines who conduct such programmes.
