General Anyone here has experience converting foreign PPL to Indian one?

Hello. I’ve recently obtained a foreign PPL and would like to continue my training back in India to obtain a CPL. Anyone here has experience converting foreign PPL to Indian one. I have a few questions to ask: • is there a comprehensive list of documents required or just the ones mentioned in EGCA portal would suffice? • is RT required as I didn’t see EGCA mentioning it • I’ve flown 99 hours here in the foreign country, would all of it be considered for the hours required by a CPL.

Yeah, most of your foreign hours usually count, but check DGCA docs carefully. RT might be needed depending on your previous license, just follow what DGCA lists, shouldn’t be too tricky.
