Questions to help me on my quest to get my First Flying Job in India!

Hi all,

I am currently training in the US and working towards my CPL.

On completion I plan on entering the job market in India.

I am a US Citizen of Indian origin.

My questions are:
(1) Do airlines in India hire fresh CPL holders as Ex-Pat FO's?
(2) If not would getting a Person of Indian Origin (PIO) or a Overseas Citizenship of India (OCI) card help?
(3) I know there is a 10+2 requirement with Maths and Physics for license conversion. Is there a minimum score required in the said subjects or an overall to qualify?
(4) I have done 2 years of a 3 year engineering diploma [in India itself] after my 10th Grade. Would that be acceptable? [Both years had math but only the first year had Physics however there were plently of engineering subjects]

Can't wait to complete my training and be a part of this wonderful industry!

Any advice on approach and answers deeply appreciated!
