Without pursuing pilot training course, you can't become a pilot.

Hello Shubham
Airline flying has the highest salary and most amount of benefits. Many fresher does not wants to go to this side so the crowd is less. But you have to be trained enough to get handsome salary here. Some of these are corporate aviation (flying company airplanes), agricultural flying (crop dusting), and you could fly full time in the military. Regional (or commuter) airlines also employ pilots, although the pay scales and working conditions are not like the major airlines.
One can get jobs at AirIndia, SpiceJet, Lufthansa, Jet Airways, AirAsia, IndiGo, National Aviation Company of India and many more.
