Hello Shivam,
For being a pilot, you need minimum 35 lacs in India from a good flying club. But, if you need a job also, you have to do few more courses which will cost you around 70 lacs in total.
All the best.

Yes, there are 2 options. You can enroll for a commercial pilot course or you can join Air force.
You need to keep in mind that there are restrictions on age limit, if you want to fly. So, it's advisable to start the course of commercial pilot as early as possible.

To become commercial Pilot, one has to be minimum 10th pass with maths, physics and English. He should be able to clear aviation grade medical tests which include heart, eye, color blindness, low frequency hearing capabilities etc.
It is wrong to assume that most people prefer abroad training as it is costlier there compared to India. However, after obtaining CPL, one has to go abroad for multi engine instrument rating and type certification.
Admission in any Indian or abroad Flying Training is easily available, provided you clear medical test and ready to spend about Rs.35-50 Lacs.
