Both the profiles that you have mentioned here are way different from each other. There is nothing comparable between them. Hence, there are only and only difference.
Commercial Pilot flies the plane and does the operational duty for the airline whereas someone who has done B.Sc. Aviation might be working for any department as per the company requirements. It may be operations, ground handling, ramp duties, cargo, hub control, etc.
B.Sc Aviation is merely a graduation degree which allows you to call yourself a graduate and hence, eligible for any job that requires it's candidates to be a graduate.
And, on the other hand, Commercial Pil

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 ha

The only educational requirement for CPL training is 10+2 with PCM as its subjects. No graduation or post graduation is required.
In case you do not have PCM at 10+2 level, you shall stand ineligible for the course.
There are although provisions for those candidates who do not have PCM at 10+2 level and are interested in pursuing CPL training. They should appear for maths to complete the trio of PCM in the next session of board exams. After clearing maths at 10+2 level, they shall qualify with PCM and hence shall fall eligible for the course.
The other may remain as additional subjects, although they are of no use.
Like I mentioned ear

But foreign airlines hire expat pilots with certain specific requirements. Usually, the requisites include:
# ATPL
# Flying Hours at least 1500
# 500 Hrs on type
# English Language Proficiency Level 5
# Class 1 Medical
The license requirement may be ICAO or FAA depending on the operator's needs.
So, before you apply for an airline like Qatar you will have to obtain at least the minimum flying hour requirements and Medicals. License conversion can be done based on their requirements.
They too have different selection procedure and pay scales for those pilots who join them from outside their home nations.

Training to become a pilot is obviously an expensive task. Hence scholarships and freeships help the candidate to offload their financial burden.
In India, government flying clubs support schemes which are offered by various government institutions who finance loans for candidates who are looking for CPL training.
For general category candidates, who fall under a certain defined value of family income, Nagar Nigams have schemes for freeships are loans.
For those who belong to the Other Backward Castes, Schedule Tribes and Schedule Castes, their respective commissions have schemes to offer loans, scholarships and freeships to candidates
