The 5 or 3 hours night requirement that was mentioned is not the PIC requirement.
It is multi engine training requirement, you need 3 or 5(not sure which is correct) multi dual(training) hours for multi engine license.A few pilots applications got rejected and this was the reason given by DGCA ... 'give a break down of multi engine training hours and show the night training time'.
Also Rahul if you read the definition of solo by dgca it is 'Sole occupant of the aircraft' whereas most nations define solo as 'Sole manipulator of controls' i haven't heard anybody rejected on this basis but i was surprised to find this in the CAR's the other day.
Just plain stupid in my opinion.
