You are advised to appear for NDA exam conducted by UPSC to join flying branch in Indian Air Force after 10+2 stage. You can appear for CDS examination conducted by UPSC after graduation degree to join flying branch in Indian Air Force. All your expenses to become pilot will be paid by government of India in both of the suggested options. You can join as commercial pilot after few years flying experience in Indian Air Force.

Hello Karan Dev Singh,
Yes, it will help you for sure in getting good position.
The main advantage of doing graduation is if you face any problem in aviation, atleast you can do other job for your living. So, always be ready for backhand because there is no guarantee in aviation.

Hello Vishal Yadav,
You can join in airlines as commercial pilot only if you have done flying as pilot in Indian Air Force. You have to finish the time period of Indian Air Force first, else they will cancel your pilot licence.
