Expat Pilots, stay away from Paramount. All but two expat Pilots have left the Airlines. Paramount is a FRAUD company they are CHEATS. Don't believe their lies.

Mate for your own good, stay away from them..!! OR else

They dont have a single a/c now..and haven't even paid of previous dues to employees and organizations yet.
The company's reputation speaks for itself. Just go to wiki or google and type in paramount airways india..It'll give you more info than what you need to know.

@Viking320

Indian and expat pilots in Paramount have not been paid salaries since February and will not be paid anything till August.

Some of the pilots including 4 trainee pilots who coughed up 25 lakh rupees upfront for their Embraer-170 Type Rating are planning to sue them.

They claim they are going to get 10 airbuses and are planning to start international operations later this year !

Just out of curiosity, are you dealing with the airline directly or through an agency ?
Have they mentioned anything else regarding the contract ?
This airline is known to breach contracts at whim. So be advised.

You are better off applying to Go-Air or Indigo for A320 positions.

Seems to be over

Paramount Airways has many deficiencies and that the airline has developed an attitude to neglect safety requirements. But at stake in this neglect is the lives of hundreds of people.

Madras HC provides relief to Paramount Airways-Airlines / Aviation-Transportation-News By Industry-News-The Economic Times

For all of you who are dreaming of a job in Paramount Airways , the previous posts speak for itself.Mr.Thiagarajan is still learning how to spell the word "Aircraft"....like I said before , open your eyes there are better places to work.

@Viking320

Dont even think about joining Paramount..
There are millions of other companies to join for the BUS pilots..
In india Indigo would be a good option as a Line Captain..
If you are a TRI/TRE then Kingfisher or Go Air may also be a good bet
