2. PPL candidates are required to appear in Composite paper in General, Technical (Gen) and Technical Specific papers only.

3. CPL /CHPL candidates are required to appear in Navigation, Meteorology, Air Regulation paper in General and Technical (Gen)& Technical Specific papers only.

4. ATPL candidates are required to appear in Navigation, Meteorology, Radio Aids & Instruments paper in General and Technical (Gen), Technical Specific & Technical performance papers only. If appearing in ATPL directly without having CPL Licence shall appear in Air Regulation paper as well

5. PPLCG candidates are required to appear in Composite paper in General, Technical (Gen) and Technical Specific papers only.

6. CPLCG candidates are required to appear in Navigation Composite, Air Regulation paper in General and Technical (Gen)& Technical Specific papers only.

7. ATPLCG candidates are required to appear in Navigation composite, Air Regulation (if not holding Indian CPL) paper in General and Technical (Gen),Technical Specific & Technical performance papers only.

1. Its obvious (to some) that if you get PPL on PA34 by clearing the PA34 Written Technical Exam, you don't have to retake the same when you get the CPL or ATPL on PA34

2. Same practice has been used for Technical General, if you clear it for CPL you don't take it again for ATPL

3. AS far as PPLCG/CPLCG/ATPLCG is considered there is little point in conducting the technical general and specific exams, but the local aviation training industry may be lobbying to get these hurdles in way of conversions, so that they don't lose customers to USA/Canada/OZ/NZ/SA/Philip.. etc.

4. Its is possible this all is an error.. if you see how they really work at DGCA you will know they are crazy cut-copy-paste people. Remember nor CAR has been amended its only the form, they tried to make better.
