To become a pilot, you should first be aware of the eligibility. This is decided on what subjects have you taken in class 12th.It requires PCM to be a pilot. And, even if you have not opted for the same, then you can appear separately for these subjects and become eligible.

Hello,
As per the information available on the net and some other sources, All India Institute of Aeronautics appears to be better than Kompass Aviation.All India Institute of Aeronautics offers course for commercial pilot besides hosting many other courses. It has a tie up with government Flying School in Bhuvaneshwar and some other flying schools in Phillipines and Canada. This perhaps will ensure that the required 220 hours of flying could be completed in the stipulated time. This institute has been established more than 10 years ago in 2006. However, to be on cautious side, information about faculty is not readily available.

They are a Franchise as far as I am aware. They will send you somewhere outside India for Training.

Yes, definitely you are eligible to apply CPL after +2 with science stream. But, you need to have a good amount of money.
In my opinion, after +2, PPL is better. After doing this, go for CPL and ground handling, etc.
All the best.

Hello,
Getting a commercial pilot license and getting to learn flying in defense are two entirely different things. There are plenty of flying schools in India and you can choose anyone. Eligibility is to pass class 12th with PCM.
You can join defense forces by appearing for NDA entrance exam conducted by UPSC.
