Hi Rushikesh, For life Science students, most of the opportunities are found in universities and research institutions. There are a large number of research institutions under the Council of scientific and industrial research.
You can opt the option of CSIR NET exam, it will give you a great career scope in research. If you are a Science student and willing to pursue your career further as a junior research fellow or an assistant professor, only then you should aim for CSIR - NET exam, later you can become a scientist.
All the best.
