Yes who you fly for is important with full support or you are on your own. I have been in India for the last 18 months
Renting on your oen could be very expensive. You have to pay one month rent to realtor and if you have a furnished place up to 6 months deposit. Penalty if you cancel lease and good luck to have your 6 months deposit.
Also a good company will provide a facilitator any time you have to renew your visa or trip to the FRRO and even for your medical.
When you look for a place inquire about water supply. Some very expensive societies have a very bad reputation you are in a shower and water flow stop sometimes for two days. Water is tankered by truck
For electricity look for inverter or generator back up. How much power will be available from the generator. Thursday is electrical fix and on occasions there was no electricity for 12 hours. Inquire about the quality of the electrical grid in your area
Fruits and vegetables are outstanding and you have access to meat and fish. Numerous stores cater for expat and you can find almost the same food as in US or Canada at an inflated price. Lot of restaurants to eat for decent price. Booze is very expensive
Dental care is very cheap. Laser is available to fix dental decay and many expat have work done in India.
Medical care is also available. You need an MRI cost is 6000Rpe around $150US. Visit with a specialist neurosurgeon 600Rpe $15US and medical prescription almost nothing compared to US or Canada
Weather for flying is almost 9 months VFR except for DEL in Dec and Jan where cat III are required. Then there is the monsoom for tho or three months. It is almost the end of the world for Indian pilots. But if you flew in US or Canada you are used to fly with TRW and some low clouds and there is no problem. You have all time an alternate and I was never an issue to request extra fuel however with a written reason. Also you can expect to land all the time at MGW you should see all the cargo that goes in the plane
Check for pay deposit in your account. Is it there as scheduled or is it delayed
Medical with the Air Force is a nightmare. Be very careful with what you mention, a non-issue with proper medication approved by ICAO, TC, CAA, FAA could turn into a inquisition. Basically IAF claims that indian pilots do not take medication and have a very high standard of health. Lot of crap as everything in India it is lies and deception Indian pilots keep everything as a secret to the IAF doctor
Have fun
