It actually depends on where you want to be a pilot. By where I mean to say defence pilot or commercial pilot.
If you are looking to be a pilot in defence forces then most of them require you to be a graduate preferably in science, may it be AFCAT, CDS, ICG, etc.
And if you are targeting to be a commercial pilot then just 10+2 (PCM) is required. Maintain at least 60% marks in PCM.
I hope your query has been answered well.

Hello Ojas,
If you do Diploma in aeronautical engineering after 10th then you would be moving towards maintenance side. Also, you can't do B.Sc without doing +2. Hence, if you want to become a pilot then score good marks in 10+2 with PCM as this is the basis of admission in flying schools.

You can definitely become a pilot after completing one year CPL course provided you finish the Course in one years' time. CPL course is not time bound, as it includes 200 Hrs. Flying + DGCA exams + RT + Medical.

Both are very different profiles and have good pay. And mind it, both require a lot of preparation and dedication. Aviation is the second after Bollywood in India in terms of Glamour. IIT engineering also has a very good pay.

Yes, definitely you are eligible to apply CPL after +2 with science stream. But, you need to have a good amount of money.
In my opinion, after +2, PPL is better. After doing this, go for CPL and ground handling, etc.
All the best.
