 Hello Jaineet, 

Interesting to see you have already decided what you wish to make a career in. 

To become a pilot, you need to study PCM in class 12th. After clearing 12th, you need to register with a flying club and obtain the Student pilot licence, which apart from flying hours requires you to clear entrance exam based on Air regulations, meterology etc.

In order to fly an aircraft one needs the Commercial pilot licence, which can be obtained only after obtaining the private pilot licence. PPL requires around 60hrs of flying and accompanied by a trained pilot and cross border flying and cclearing entrance exams like SPL.  For CPL you need around 125hrs of flying and 30 hrs of cross border flying. 

Please do check the hours of flying. I am a little unsure. 

Hope this helpsm

Wish you good luck...
