A Karad club that describes exactly what its course fee covers, in a paragraph on its own terms page, and never says how much it is.
Ambitions Flying Club flies from Karad in Maharashtra, and reading its site is an odd experience: the club has clearly thought about its fee, because its terms page defines the scope of it in careful language, saying the course fee covers the regulator's minimum requirement for a licence and applies to two hundred hours of flying. It just never prints a number anywhere.
The club's own sequence is worth knowing because it is unusual. It says the first step is a Class 2 medical and that it takes admission only once that is complete, which means the medical is a gate rather than a formality here, and a failed one costs you nothing but the medical.
There is a second address to be careful with. The site footer prints a registered address at an airstrip in Uttar Pradesh while the regulator's list carries only the Karad base in Maharashtra. The footer itself labels Karad as the operating base, so treat the northern address as a company address and not as somewhere you might be sent to fly.
The regulator prints approval 06/2016 against this organisation, records its ownership as Private Ltd, and gives the approval as valid to 30 November 2027.
The DGCA list records 4 single engine and 0 multi engine, types Cessna 152, Cessna 172R and Cessna 172S. The about and facilities pages agree on four single engine aircraft, described as two Cessna 172 and two Cessna 152, and say multi engine training is done through a tie-up with another DGCA approved organisation rather than on the club's own aircraft. The CPL page, however, names the training aircraft as 'Cessna 172 / Cessna 152 / Piper Seneca IV', a twin the regulator's list does not carry and which the facilities page implies is not the club's own. Both are recorded as found.

DGCA ranking, 1 April 2026 edition: Category B, printed at serial 15. It was Category C in the 30 September 2025 edition, so this is a move in the regulator's own letters between the two.
The regulator publishes a letter and a serial number and no score at all, so there is nothing behind the letter to inspect and nothing here to rank schools against each other by. The bands the letters come from, and how many organisations sit in each on this edition, are set out on the flying schools in India index.
We hold no figure for this school that we would stand behind, so this page gives you none. Its fee is Not publishedon the school's own site, checked 8 September 2026
The club states the first step is a Class 2 medical and that it takes admission only after that is complete. It then requires attested copies of 10th and 12th mark sheets and passing certificates, school leaving certificate, proof of date of birth, photo and address proof, twenty photographs, eGCA enrolment, and police and board verification after admission. The CPL page separately requires age 18 completed, 10+2 with Physics and Maths, and an Indian Class 1 medical. Application is on a prescribed form in the prospectus, collected at Karad. No entrance test or interview is described.
Registered address printed in the site footer: MS-10, NH-91 Dhanipur Air Strip, Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh 202001. The DGCA list gives only the Karad Airport base in Maharashtra. The footer labels Karad as the operating base and Aligarh as the registered address, so this is an address the regulator's list does not carry rather than a proven second flying base.
Fee not published on the school's own site (checked 8 September 2026).
No amount appears on any page of the club's site, including the terms and refund page that describes what the fee is for.
The club publishes no hourly rate either, so there is no way to build the cost up yourself from what it does print.
Nothing above is the whole cost of becoming a pilot. Our pilot training cost in India page has the full stack from the medicals to the type rating, and CPL course fees in India puts this school's licence figure next to the rest of the market.
The club does not say. Every page that uses the words course fee was read, including the terms and refund page, and the scope of the fee is described without an amount anywhere. We will not put somebody else's figure in that gap.
Its own facilities page says multi engine training happens through a tie-up with another approved organisation, and the regulator's list records no multi engine aircraft against this club. Its CPL page nonetheless names a twin among the training aircraft. Both statements are on this page and neither is resolved here.
The club asks for the Class 2 medical first, then attested school certificates, proof of date of birth, photographs, the regulator's online enrolment, and police and board verification after admission. The CPL page adds the usual physics and mathematics requirement at 10+2.
