"Flying GA in India is as same as doing bush flying there( you really fly to remote places where you don't have access to internet) so kind f used to bush flying."
Ah, I don't think you understand Australian bush flying. Think Cessna single engine aircraft, grass and gravel air strips, very remote locations, often vast cattle stations with one family, aboriginal settlements, hand refuelling from drums, 40C plus heat in Summer, flies, dust, dirt, pilot/loader/unloader/postman, low pay, poor standard accommodation and the nearest curry shop 1,000 miles away.

Pitt Street, the Taj Mahal Restaurant, hot showers and pressurised turbine aircraft are a miniscule and very luxurious remote part of Australia for an Aussie bush pilot.

Area of India: 2,973,190 Sqr Km
Population of India: 1,150,000,000
Population density: 386.8 people per square kilometer

Area of Australia: 7,692,024 Sqr Km
Population of Australia: 22,309,373
Population density: 2.9 people per square kilometer

Not trying to disuade you at all but would not be nice if you came here and didn't like Australia.
