Commercial pilot license is the required qualification to start a career as pilot in passenger and cargo flights. You should complete class 12th with minimum 50% in PCM for admission. It will take one year to complete the course.
The course is focused on both theory and practical. Theory consists of airline and aviation basics, aviation rules, navigation system, structure and troubleshooting of various air crafts, etc. There will be minimum 1000 hours practical fly training in various air crafts.
There is another pilot license called as Private pilot license/ PPL. Class 12th is the basic criteria for this course and PCM combination is not mandatory. But, only private flights, helicopters, etc. can be operated with this license.

Hi,
In order to become a commercial pilot you must have completed your Class XIIth under the 10+2 system or its equivalent with a minimum of 50% marks in mathematics and physics.
Training in commercial flying can be taken with flying clubs, the Rashtriya Udan Academy, Private Flying academies.
The training goes through 3 stages of license. The licenses have to be procured in the following order:

After Class XI/XII (with PCM) students can apply for the SPL.
On passing Class XII (PCM) they may enroll for the next licence -PPL.
On getting the PPL training begins for CPL.

Well you need to have PCM in 10+2 level. Apply for various CPL institutions. Clear the medical tests. I would suggest doing it from Canada as it is cheaper than USA. Please for God's sake don't do it from Philippines as most Aviation Companies have blacklisted most of their institutions for malpractices. The cost would be around 24-27L in INR but once you get the admission papers in hand, trust me, banks will run after you to approve your loan. It won't be difficult to repay either. I would also suggest you to play Microsoft Flight Simulator, test me it will help you understand flight simulator in the later part of training. Be careful with your eyesight and BMI to clear the health check up. They will also monitor your BP, Cholesterol levels and Diabetes count.
Cheers and all the best. And once you wear those wings and appellates, please do remember me.
