A Punjab state government club with two bases, three twin engine aircraft on the approval, and no website on the regulator's list to read any of it from.
Patiala Aviation Club is state government owned, flies from Patiala and Amritsar, and holds one of the more capable fleets in this directory, with three multi engine aircraft on the approval including a Beech Baron. The regulator's list prints no website for it, which is why this page carries the regulator's facts and stops there.
The two base structure is worth noting on its own. Amritsar is a busy international airport, and training out of a field like that is a different experience from training at a quiet strip: more controlled airspace, more real traffic, and more waiting for a slot. The regulator records both bases against the one approval.
The only contact the regulator prints for the club is an address at a free email provider. That is the entire published means of reaching it, so a student who wants a fee has to write and ask, and nothing on the public record will tell them what to expect.
The regulator prints approval 02/2018 against this organisation, records its ownership as State Government, and gives the approval as valid to 12 May 2028.
Nothing to compare. The regulator lists 6 single engine and 3 multi engine aircraft: Cessna 172R, Cessna 172S, Cessna 152, Tecnam P2006T and Beech Baron G-58. No school statement exists to set beside it.
The regulator's list prints no website for this organisation, so there was no site of its own to read on 8 September 2026.

DGCA ranking, 1 April 2026 edition: Category C, printed at serial 30. It was Category B 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 publishedby this organisation anywhere, checked 8 September 2026
Not stated. No school website exists on the regulator's list.
None known. The regulator lists Hanger 1, Civil Aerodrome, Sangrur Road, Patiala, Punjab, and Sri Guru Ram Das Jee International Airport, Amritsar, Punjab.
The regulator's list prints no website for this organisation, so there is no site of its own to check (checked 8 September 2026).
There is no club website on the regulator's list, so nothing about fees, courses, hourly rates or intakes is published by the club anywhere we can cite.
No published source of the club's own exists to describe how its two bases divide the training between them.
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.
There is no published figure from the club. The regulator's list carries no website for it and the only contact printed is an email address, so a fee has to be asked for directly. Figures for state clubs circulate on listing sites and this directory does not repeat them.
The regulator records both against the same approval and nothing published says how the club divides training between them. Amritsar is a busy international airport, so it is a fair question to ask before you assume where your hours would be flown.
Yes. It is Category C on the edition in force and was Category B on the previous edition six months earlier. Both dates are stated on this page, because a letter without its edition ages into a claim that is no longer true.
