Pilot Training

For CPL, 12th is the minimum requirement.
You need to understand that Pilot training is governed and regulated by DGCA and it is irrespective of the flying school you choose to train with.
For becoming a commercial pilot, there is a specific eligibility criteria, which you should first be aware of. 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. Further, you should be aware that you are medically fit to be a pilot, so I would suggest you to visithttp://www.dgca.nic.in/medical/medical-ind.htmandgototheclass2nd examiners tab to find out doctors who will examine you for initial fitness. You can visit any doctorate from the list as per your convenience. Once you are done with Class 2nd medical, find out a suitable flying club for you as per your convenience. You can fly in India or abroad. I would suggest you fly in India. Besides finding the club, be aware that you will have to appear for:
1. Air Navigation
2. Aviation Meteorology
3. Air Regulations
4. Aviation Technical
5. Aircraft Specific
6. Radio Telephony
Here, 1-5 are conducted by DGCA and 6 is conducted by WPC. Prepare for these subjects and appear, as exams are conducted every quarterly. For preparation, flying club will help you or there are private instructors available in metro cities as well. You will fly for 200Hrs + Clear DGCA and WPC exams + Clear Class 1st medical, then you shall get your CPL. The next license is ATPL, which you shall be able to apply for once. You will then have to probably fund or self-sponsor your type rating on whatever fleet you are selected in an airline. Then, you finally get a job as a pilot. I hope the process is well explained to you. CPL is an expensive affair. It might cost you around Rs.18-20 Lacs for flying + DGCA exams Rs.500/- each exam + Medicals for Rs.10, 000 + endorsements and license issue fees around Rs. 25k + Type Rating around Rs.15 Lacs. So, decide wisely before you enter the field.

Some very good flying schools in India are listed under:
1. IGRUA-Raebarelie
2. NFTI-Gondia
3. Chimes Aviation, Sagar University
4. NFC, Nagpur
5. BFC, Mumbai
6. Carver Aviation, Baramati
7. GMR Avaition Academy
You should also be aware that the cost of CPL Training is dependent on the type of aircraft you choose to get trained on. Cessna 152 - Rs.7000-8000 per hour.
Cessna 172 - Rs.9000-11000 per hour.
P-16 - Rs.15000-18000 per hour etc. And, any candidate who gets enrolled for this professional training requires to complete 200 hours of flying in order to get his/her CPL issued. Hence, the total cost including accommodation + food goes around INR 30 Lakhs - INR 40 Lakhs. IGRUA & NFTI are two premiere institutions in India who also have tie-up with international TRTO CAE. Flying is taught by flying schools and not by universities as CPL is a professional training, as I've already mentioned above and not a degree course.
