No he is referring to April 2012 . After conducting the April 2012 written exam their CASS was delayed to March 2013 and their interviews only took place in July - August 2013
The first few batches began their type rating Sept 2013 at Dubai and Bangalore
They will be next in line to join after Jan 2014

After the Jan batch, there are 56-58 candidates from 2013 selection waiting to be inducted and are doing their TR in Dubai and Bengaluru, while 2 -3 batches are already done awaiting paperwork. They will be inducted at a rate of 16-18 per batch every alternate month. So that lot will get over in Sept 14(latest) post which the guys who will clear their rounds now will start joining.
The rate of induction going up is likely, considering the strong rumors of TATA-SIA also purchasing Airbus aircraft.

All the self-type rated are getting inducted in Jan. Post that there only these 56-58 guys doing their TR. These are inclusive of IndiGo cadets from CAE.
Are you self typerated or waiting to join or have cleared written ?
Let me tell you a bitter truth. IndiGo is hiring a lot but I wont be exaggerating if I said that 85 percent of this crowd is either from NFTI Gondia or IGRUA since both are CAE. And if someones arguement is that its bcos IndiGo has a 'cadet pilot program' running at NFTI, then these 'cadets' who signed up for the full program, have only started to get done now. But IndiGo has been hiring from Gondia before this and those are NOT IndiGo cadets.
Ok, and for some very funny reason, 85 percent of the crowd being hired are from Delhi. Not kidding. (nothing against Delhites)
To put it in a nutshell - If you ever dream of being a pilot with IFLY now
- You need to be from CAE Gondia or IGRUA.
- You need to be from Delhi.
If youre BOTH and study a little bit, your walk into IndiGo is a cake walk.

People have become very unresponsive to this forum. i am guessing that is because many have shifted to another platform to discuss these woes. 
However, the threads over here, especially this one and the jet one have been so informative and helpful.
hope people start contributing here like the previous candidates did- it was so lively then!
Regarding the head count, i believe that will turn out quite inaccurate even if everyone does pitch in nevertheless, 4 people whom i know who appeared for this exam 3 cleared.

No offense to anyone here.. But honestly, let me suggest something !
I have been through the exact same process and the train of thought and excitement that follows during that process. So I understand.
But eventually I realized that there was absolutely no meaning whatsoever in spending hours speculating on what percentage of people usually make it through CASS and if 90 % do, then how many % chances do I have of making it in that 90 % rather than in the 10 %. And then in the last round 7 in 11 made it through the interview of which 1 had come late and 2 were kin of Air India Captains and then they had gotten calls 2 weeks before the interview and joined 2 months after and how many aircraft IndiGo is buying and how many pilots are retiring and how many they need in the next 5 years considering that another airline is also buying new A320s.....Heeyyyyyyy Bhaaggwwwaaaaann !!!!!! TAKE A BREATH !!!!
JUNK INFORMATION.... ALLLLLL JUNK !!!
(I must admit I went through this).
Trust me guys, all this doesnt matter at this stage. If all 10 turn out to be bums in the CASS, theyl throw out everybody.
CASS is EXACTLY EXACTLY EXACTLY how its mentioned in the manual. If a candidate was to NOT talk to anybody before his rounds and just appear directly, trust me he knows the same as the rest of them.
-READ READ READ READ READ the manual twice everyday (not exaggerating).
-Make a mental note of what you have answered in the online questionaire and that you maintain your response and reasoning in the CASS interview if the same Q was thrown at you. (Now see... if you had genuinly truly honestly answered that questionaire, you wouldnt need me to TELL you this would u ??)
-DO NOT interact too much with the 'cool hot shot Top Gun pilot dudes' who come to the venue and try to take unnecessary inputs from them in the last minute.
-STUDY STUDY STUDY STUDY like you know nothing and study EVERYTHING for the interview. Dont go around asking "Last time Jeppesen poocha tha kya" cos youl get all sorts of answers which will help you determine eventually that "Yeahh I gota study JUST IN CASE the Head of Training on that day is replaced by the Head of Flight Safety and he loves to ask Jeppesen".
-DO NOT TRY TO PORTRAY WHAT YOURE NOT OR LIE IN THE CASS INTERVIEW. The girls there see 20 hotshots like you in every batch and are trained to pick the nut. If you screwed a certain part of your sim, then say you screwed it cos they have caught it too.
-Have a map of your life so far that youve spent so far and plans for the future. What you like, what bothers you, what irritates you, what you would do in a certain situation. The CASS is designed to bring out your personality.
-CASS interview is not a formal interview. Its a 'conversation'. Interact, open up.
-The CASS Sim.. Well.. its a generic sim which uses the A10 military aircraft for its exercise and for those who can get a hand on the game "LOCKON" should do so. But hey hey hey hey.... wait.. IF YOU DONT>> then dont think your gona FAIL the CASS !!! Not all those who cleared CASS in the past mastered LOCKON.
-SIM IS NOT EVERYTHING IN CASS CONTRADICTORY TO THE POPULAR BELIEF.
-Again... Cant stress enough the imporatnce of reaaadddiinngg theeeee maaannuaaaallllll....Thats your best friend for the CASS..
So guyzngalz.. dont take my advice in the wrong sense. Concentrate on preparing for the upcoming round rather than indulging in unnecessary stats.
All the best and see you on the other side
