In a year, based on recent statistics, approximately 26 lakh graduates pass out of the Indian Education system. Can you guess how many of them ended up with a job (A job commensurate to their education) on completion of their graduation? 30%? 20%? Nope. An appalling 8%.
Of the 15000 odd CPL holders in India, roughly about 5000 are working in the airlines. So, you do the math and figure out, if it is as tough as otherwise to get a job.
Leaving the stat aside, how tough or how easy it is to make it big in any career, depends predominantly on your caliber and the quantum of effort that you put in to equip yourself to be among the best. I have come across tons of CPL holders who whinge about the competition in the job market in India. To them, I state one simple stat. In any recruitment drive conducted by a major airline in India, roughly 4000 odd CPL holders compete for 100 spots (which has been the case for the past 5-6 years), which means roughly 1 out of every 40 get a job. And, there are six major airlines, some of which conduct such recruitment drives all the year around. When you graduate with a degree from a college, you are looking at a competition of 1 in 10000 to land yourself a decent job. So, decide for yourself as to where the competition is at it's toughest. If you don't have it in you to be the best one among 40 candidates, then it is a tough luck. If you have it in you, then you are looking at an illustrious career, with everything being fed to you on a silver plate all through your life.
Yet again, people keep complaining, that only if you have a jack, you would be able to get into the major airlines, i.e complete BS. I have seen a lot of my friends get in simply without that, simply because they persevered. I myself had none, yet have worked with two of India's major carriers. It is sure, that jack works in aviation (where the hell doesn't it , in India), but that's not everything. You can be your own jack to get into an airline.

Hi Ishanuj,
You must have a minimum of 55% PCM in class 12th. If you are going to take your flying classes from government flying schools there will be an entrance test conducted by the Director General Civil Aviation or the DGCA. Being a pilot requires a lot of specialized technical training at various levels. In brief, the first level is that of a Student Pilot License (SPL), which allows the student to learn. After getting some training the student is provided with a Private Pilot License (PPL), which allows him to captain an aircraft without passengers. After gaining some training and experience he has to qualify for the Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL), which allows him to captain an aircraft with passengers. This license is provided by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation. The CPL endorses what aircraft you can fly. Most importantly you must be physically fit and you must undergo a medical test.
