You can directly appear for CPL exams conducted by DGCA. There is no such need to appear for PPL exam first to get CPL. You can study yourself but some guidance is always good because these subjects will be new to you. So, prepare accordingly.

Yes, job opportunities after CPL training are good. Airlines keep coming up with vacancy notification from time to time. Some ask for normal CPL Holders and others come up with Type Rating requirements. Whatever you are eligible you can apply and go through the selection process. The opportunities are immense with Commercial Airlines, Cargo Operators, Private Charters, Air Ambulance Operators and VVIP Operations. Defence forces also accept CPL holders for the position of Assistant Commandant or Flying Officer.

If you're looking to do it from IndiGo Cadet Pilot Programme or Jet Airways Cadet Pilot Programme, then yes, it will cost up to 60-70 Lacs or even more than that. But if you consider doing it from other flying schools, it should complete within 30 Lacs.
