Thank to all seniors for replying to my post.
@1Bingo
Yes I am looking for SIC rating.Sorry I would have mentioned that clearly.

@HermanTheGerman,BizJetJockey
I went through CAE website and sent a request letter to them.Thanks brothers.

Brother scene in Aviation in India s completely different.A guy with 250 hour CPL is eligible for flying C152(Flying schools) to B777(AirIndia).We don't have a system of flying to build hours like first Instructing,Turboprops,Jets.If you are lucky you will directly fly 777.Now many Charter companies don't give you appointment letter until you pass type rating,they only give letter of Intent.Its individuals responsibility to pass his Type Rating.

If you look in the above link these are the total aircrafts available in India for commercial aviation(as per the government website).If you compare you have more Jet Aircrafts compared to other General Aviation aircrafts.There are several reasons for this and if I start explaining each and everything it will take pages and pages together.
Bjets is one another story.No one knows what their plans are.I live in same city where Bjets head office s located.When I visited their office they spoke to me really well but they don't have any plans of recruiting soon as things are not working out as they planned.
So finally it has become my responsibility to figure out things on my own for Type Rating.Its better to say I don't know and learn on ground rather than figuring out things at 30,000ft.
So once again thanks to all my seniors in Aviation which has brought all of us together on one flat from.
