"If you are getting both multi and single
Then Single to be done in India , Multi can be done abroad

If you are getting only Multi
Then Multi has to be done in India.
But then you will need to do the 1 hr day check ( skill test ) , 1 hr night check , 1 IR check
but also the 250nm VFR XC ( this is also a flying test )by and 120nm VFR XC ( also a flying test) by night also has to be done on multi ."

I see what you mean and you do make a lot of sense.

If I understand you correctly,
If I want CPL with Multi Endorsement only, I will need to do all these tests here on the said multi engine a/c and no tests on the single engine?
Do i need to do the tests twice for multi (day, night, IR)?
or do I skip them abroad if i'm going to do them here anyways?
What about the cross country tests on multi then, since i will need these too as per this interpretation?
which ones do I do abroad and which ones here.
Why do they need these tests there anyways if they are going to do them here.
These tests are not part of the Multi and IFR syllabus there and will be extra flights which will cost money.
Im sorry to keep going on about this but I just wanna make sure the rules dont force me to duplicate flights and want to be clear what has to be done abroad and what needs to done here.
