Can anyone please help me on this...
Is it possible to get a U.S PPL and IR (single engine), and later an Australian CPL (multi-engine vfr ) and do the Indian license conversion?
Will the DGCA accept licences and ratings from 2 different countries for indian cpl licence conversion (with ir). That is, if all my paper work- day and night checks, IR single engine check in the U.S and Multi-check in Australia are in order?
Is there any mention of how many multi ir hours are required for a multi-ir to be issued by the DGCA?
I plan to do the cpl over some time, first just the ppl/ir.
Thanks...

I dont see any reason why you should have any problems during the licence conversion ... HOWEVER ... you must understand that with the DGCA, anything that is other than the "norm" or the "routine", usually becomes dicey or trickey and sometimes problematic.
To play it safe, get the FAA PPL with IR converted to an Indian PPL.
Then get a written permission/NOC from the DGCA to do your remaining CPL and Multi engine training in Australia.
Once you have this NOC, you will not have problems during your conversions later on.
Multi Engine Rating requires 10 hours on a multi engine a/c registered and airworthy/available in India.
(DGCA has not defined what AVAILABLE means, but it is safe to get the rating on any one of those a/c listed on the DGCA website)

7.5 CONVERSION OF PILOTS LICENSE ISSUED BY FOREIGN AUTHORITIES
The applicant should have:
(a) Passed 10+2 standard examination with Physics and Mathematics Subjectsfrom a recognized Board / University or its equivalent examination.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My question in this regard is for indian students who have not studied under Indian system.
1. What does DGCA consider as equivalent examination ?
2. Do they recognise the A Level (british System) as equivalent?
3. Is their any possibility for such students to give the +2 Physics and Maths
Exams online/parttime?
Anyother information on the subject is welcome. Thanks

1&2 Year 13 of england high/upper school (A Level) with some mathematics and physics must suffice. You may have to get some documented proof of equivalence, for this you should contact your school board/district.
3. You can take exams in National Open School, India they are not online and conducted only twice a year, but I am sure you will find some equivalent exam that is online(Computer Based).

@THE OLD PRO , I just read your post.
GCSE "A" LEVEL Physics and Maths are equivalent to plus 2 phyics and Maths in India, a friend of mine had written the two GCSE subjects besides having 5 O levels and had gotten the Equivalent certificate from A.I.U stating that it is equivalent to the c.b.s.e plus 2 with physics and maths.
A.I.U requires the transcript and verification letter and whatever papers needed to be attested by the British embassy in India or an indian embassy abroad (indian embassy being a more complicated option). Also getting the equivalent certificate is faster if you go directly to the A.I.U in delhi.

Hi, I don't have 10+2 physics / math certificates.
however, i have a college degree from UK in which i did physics/math as courses, would that do.
if so, do i just self attest my transcripts or should i ask my university to send it to DGCA directly, how does that work. thanks much!

January session results out-only abt 10-12 percent pass rate in navigation and composite. Wondering what sort of questions had the DGCA specially concocted for the Jan nav paper.

With due credit to those who have passed the exams, (and commiseration to those who did not), there is absolutely NO WAY for anyone to find out why we are seeing such pass percentages.
There could be several reasons :
1. Majority of candidates not studying or preparing well for the exams.
2. Sheer bad luck.
3. Something more shady (the more likely thing).
I know this could again become a mud slinging debate, but there's definitely more to it than meets the eye and the DGCA exams and RT exam results have more to do with certain people having vested interests rather than poorly prepared candidates.
Anyhow, the only sure shot way to know why would be to start filing RTI applications.
In the US, under the FAA system, all candidates taking FAA CPL, PPL, IR, ATP FOI etc exams all get to know the results instantly ALONG with the list of questions they answered INCORRECT.
Unless there is a really big, strong and massive movement to decentralise the DGCA, make the examination system more transparent (something on the lines of the FAA) and to delegate such authority to regional bodies, it is anybody's guess as to why we see such pathetic results in the exams.

3. Something more shady (the more likely thing).
When I appeared for the exam, I noticed questions amounting to a total of 12 marks having wrong data or incomplete data to get the answer, I barely passed at 70. Things like these are common with DGCA papers. And such scenarios may mark low performance.
While high performance can be when, they scan old questions papers with some of the 'correct' choices already scribbled on the question papers by people who attempted it earlier.

Recommendations for exams
Try to find classrooms of small size.... everybody says they get 90% pass result and still the passing rate for DGCA exam is very low...get a good tried and tested instructor... i had Mr Sood in delhi, i cleared my composite in first attempt w/ 2 months of preperation... you can prepare on ur own w/ borrowed notes but u might need help from someone who has cleared their exam...
finally there are very few tutorials available online on Navigation but i recommend making most of it... i am setting up a blog to put up notes and tricks and share information... its a bit crude right now but will work towards better tutorials in future...
blog link : dgcatutorials.********.com
request for tutorials and i'll try to add them as i find the time...
cheers..
