Hello,
Basically there are ATO's and TRTO's who are authorized to conduct Type Rating Training for CPL holders. CAE, FSTC, HATS are few major type rating training facilities. You can visit their webpages and look for the eligibility requirements for various fleets. All the best.

You have reached the final year of your Engineering. This is great. The eligibility for CPL course is class 12th with science. But, you can surely join after completion if your BE.

Although, all the flying hours are logged and they can be produced in DGCA for the issue of License. DGCA has devised a separate rule for defense pilots who wish to join commercial aviation. It is called the FATA rule. You can go through the CAR on the DGCA website for the same for better details.

Is your Diploma equivalent to Class 12th PCM?
If yes, then you can join the training for CPL.
The requirement is to have class 12th with PCM 50% marks or equivalent.

Hello,
Reserved category like SC/ST/OBC, then you can seek for the freeships' and scholarships' which are specially crafted by the respective commissions, to allow the deprived category candidates in pursuing CPL training. The complete training cost is borne by the community commission which is given by the respective state/central government. For those who have AIRWING "C" Certificate, government provides free flying training of 50hours. Otherwise, bank loan is always an option but this is the most expensive way to pursue CPL as the interest rates are very high and not many banks provide such loans. All the best.

Hello,
Private License although it has got its own privileges and yes you can fly an aircraft after getting that. But, if you think of a job after PPL then it's next to impossible. No jobs are available for PPL holders, it is just an intermediate stage before CPL. All the best.

Hello,
CPL is not a degree course which will require certain amount of regular classes or attendance for that matter.
You just have to finish all the DGCA exams for issue of CPL and fly for 200hrs as per the requirements.
It is irrespective of what time you take, provided you finish the complete thing within 5 years.
All the best.

Hello,
You may be allowed to pursue this training, provided you have an aggregate of 50% marks in PCM. Now since you have scored only 41% in mathematics, your physics and chemistry marks should be such that the aggregate % of marks crosses or equals 50. Then, you can in no doubt go ahead. All the best.

Hello,
Minimum educational background required for CPL is PCM in +2 with 50% aggregate marks. PCB is not acceptable. If still you want to go for CPL then you will have to appear for Mathematics separately to justify the eligibility. Once you are done with this, you can proceed further for CPL training. All the best.

Hello,
You must be at least 16 years of age to be eligible for a Student Pilot License, 17 for a Private Pilot License, and 18 for a Commercial Pilot License.
Alternatively, you could directly enroll for the Private Pilot License once you have cleared Class XII and are 17 years old. This involves taking an exam conducted by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation* consisting of theory papers on air navigation, aviation meteorology, air regulation and technical aspects.
Your vision in one eye must be perfect. In general medical terminology, it is called 6/6 eyesight. In the other eye, you could have an imperfection of 6/9, which must be
