Yes, pilots can complete their flying hours abroad, but they must meet DGCA requirements to obtain an Indian CPL. The foreign training school must be approved by ICAO, and candidates must convert their hours to DGCA standards.
To get a DGCA CPL, pilots must pass the DGCA theory exams, clear the RTR (Aero) exam, and undergo a DGCA medical test before applying for license conversion.
