Assumptions :
There are a lot of different variables and parameters involved for Computer Number and these variables change the process for applying for CN. Hence, with my limited experience, I am making the following assumptions :
1. You have cleared your 10+2 with Physics and Math from recognized Board or University in India.
2. You haven't started your flying yet.
3. You are an Indian National.
Steps to Apply
  • Download Pariksha User Manual from Here . Read this Manual thoroughly. Done? Excellent. Read it once again. Read it 10 times.
  • Get your Board Verification Certificate (BVC) : BVC is a Certificate issued by your education board stating that your marks mentioned in your marksheet are correct and no doctored in any manner. This process is different for different boards.
    • Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) : If you have done your 10+2 from CBSE, consider yourself very luckly because the process is very very simple for you. The Verification can be done online. All you need to do is go to CBSE Online Verification Portal and take a print out of your 10th and 10+2 Mark sheets. Attest them from Public Notary or Gazetted Officer and write your credentials at the end of your CN Application (Detailed Instructions mentioned later in the post).
    • Indian Certificate for Secondary Education (ICSE) : ICSE Verification is online and relatively easy than State Board. You can follow the detailed instructions to get your ICSE BVC from here. Once you get your BVC delivered at your home, seal the envelope carefully and keep it aside.
    • All enrolled cadets stay in modern accommodation and have access to a range of comprehensive sports and leisure facilities. The EFTA facilities are designed to accommodate over 600 cadets at a time, providing the ideal environment for focused, dedicated training.
    • If you have completed your 10+2 education from the Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education (MSBSHE) and wish to take DGCA exams, you will need to obtain a Board Verification Certificate (BVC) from the MSBSHE. The process of obtaining this certificate involves writing an application on a blank page (preferably in Marathi) and clearly stating that you need the BVC for DGCA exams. You will need to take this application along with a Xerox copy of your 10+2 marksheet to your nearest regional Board Office. When the office staff asks you for the purpose of the BVC, you should inform them that it is needed for DGCA exams. If they ask for a request letter from DGCA, you can present them with the public notice issued by DGCA. It is important to request that the BVC should be collected personally and not sent directly to DGCA. The cost of each BVC is INR 400 and it will be delivered to you in a sealed envelope after 8-10 working days. It is important to note that the sealed envelope should not be opened and should be sent as it is to DGCA. MSBSHE also has an online verification option, but since the process is not tested with DGCA, it is recommended to go with the physical verification.
  • Karnataka State Board PUC
    • Things to carry :1 . Marksheet (original)
    • Marksheet (photocopy)
    • Aadhar card photocopy
    • DGCA form (the PDF from website)
    • Pen.
  • Steps
    • Go to PUC Malleswaram
    • Go to room number 2 on ground floor.
    • Ask for board verification
    • Say for DGCA
    • Give them marksheet original and DGCA form.
    • Just tell her other formalities if she asks.
    • Ask how long it will take (took me half an hour)
    • Come back when she tells you.
    • She will give you one notebook, fill whatever she tells you.
    • Collect originals.
    • Ask for Speed Post envelope.
    • Get it signed from the main person in room number 2.
    • Go home, put verification thing inside envelope. 14. Mail it.
Photograph :
  • Photograph required for CN Application has specific dimensions which can be found in the Pariksha User Manual Chapter 2.5.1. You Photograph should
  • be borderless
  • Should have White Background
  • The face on the photograph must be of 35mm height and 25mm width (face size should be 70% of the Photograph) or Singapore Visa Format.
  • The photograph must be of matte finish.
Prepare Soft Copies for all Documents :
  • Scan All documents according to the specification mentioned in the Pariksha User Manual (Page No. 7 - Chapter 2.5) You might need to compress and reduce the size of few documents to make them as per the requirements. I recommend using the following websites for compressing the pdfs.
  • If you may have noticed , the maximum allowed size for 10th Pass Certificate is just 100kb, which is very less.Please adjust the parameters carefully while compressing. I have personally observed many times CN Applications getting rejected because their scanned PDF of 10th Pass Certificate was not legible. So , you need to carefully compress it and make sure that the content on the Certificate is readable comfortably.
  • WARNING 2 : You may wonder that if we are sealing the BVC, how can we scan and upload it. So, in such cases where your BVC is sealed inside a envelope, you need to scan the "Sealed Side" of the envelope (make sure that the seal is clearly visible) and upload that while filling up the Application. However, I recommend that you scan both the sides of the envelope for safety, Those who have done their 10+2 from CBSE can upload the BVC obtained from the link mentioned above in point 2.1.
Prepare Physical Documents :
  • Now that you have everything that is needed for your CN Application, you can start filling your application online on Pariksha Website. Detailed instructions to fill up the application can be found in the Pariksha User Manual.
  • 5.1 The Physical CN Application : After successfully filling up the application, you will receive an email from DGCA with an PDF attachment of your application. Take a colored printout of that application PDF. Now, go on Page 3 and Fill up the Part 8 - "DECLARATION" using BLACK BALL POINT PEN ONLY. Now comes a crucial part of the application : Part 9 - "CERTIFICATION BY COMPETENT AUTHORITY". Stick the same photo that you had scanned for the application. If your photo is according the required dimensions, it will fit perfectly inside the box. Now, either from a CFI/PII/Gazetted Officer/Notary Public , attest the application In case of serving Defence personnel ,this may be attested by another serving Commissioned Officer. WARNING 1 : The Stamp and Sign of the Attesting Officer should be partly on the photo and partly on the paper. Please refer the example given below.
  • Other Documents : Make a Xerox Copy of all the documents that you had uploaded for the Application and attest them.
  • Additional Information for BVC : Above in Point 2.1 I had mentioned that you need to mention your credentials for CBSE BVC. If you have space left after Part 9, you can write your credentials there itself or else take a new sheet of paper and write your credentials there. A sample format is provided here (Replace all "X" with your relevant information in the letter)
Prepare Physical Documents :
Now that you have everything that is needed for your CN Application, you can start filling your application online on Pariksha Website. Detailed instructions to fill up the application can be found in the Pariksha User Manual.
Buy a A2 or A3 size envelope for posting these Physicaldocuments to DGCA. Take a print out of this Page (afterediting with your relevant information) and paste it on thefront side of your envelope. Serially arrange the documentsaccording the sequence mentioned on Page 2 of your CNApplication and put all the documents inside the envelope.

What is a BVC ?
Board Verification Certificate is authenticated proof that verifies your marksheet of your 10th and 10+2 . This is provided by the candidates respective education board .It may be CBSE, CISCE and other state boards; generally, it is available offline but some boards provides online BVC. DGCA clearly specifies that proper link should be provided by the candidate in order to be accepted for the computer number. CAR 147 approved institutes generally complete these procedures so that candidates do not have to worry about it. However, private category students suffer a great deal if this is not known.
How to get your BVC ?
  • Generally a candidate needs to apply for BVC online through the respective boards website . Search the the option “Verification Documents” in the respective board’s website or search for documents in the website, or in case if you are not getting your BVC, contact your school authority. Each and every board will ask to Sign in (remember to fill all the details correctly while signing in) then proceed .
  • After completing all the above-said procedures, the respective board will ask you for payment. After successful payment, you will receive your BVC at home via speed post , DTDC etc..
  • Now the cost for the BVC will depend on the candidate’s sample of the first page of a BVC respective board. It may be Rs 500 each (500 for 10th and 500 for 10+2) or it may be Rs 1000 each depending on the board. As per my knowledge It is Rs. 500 each in case of CBSE and CISCE. Another thing to remember, you need to get your BVC for your Marksheet or statement of marks only and not you pass certificates.

Another thing to remember, you need to get your BVC for your Marksheet or statement of marks only and not you pass certificates.
How to apply after getting the BVC ?
  • After receiving the Board Verification Certificate, the private category candidates often get confused about whether to send the BVC in a sealed envelope or by simply copies of the document. So let me answer you this – I asked DGCA about this in the enquiry section and they replied as follows: “please follow our user manual instructions”.
  • So let me tell you in layman language, just take out coloured copies of your BVC and in case of a private candidate, get those coloured copies duly attested from a gazetted officer or notary public and send it to DGCA. If you send the sealed envelope, then there is a great risk of getting your BVC lost. I got rejected for computer number thrice for my document issues (not BVC). Therefore, there is no need to send the sealed envelope to DGCA and be assured it will be accepted .
  • Many difficulties are faced by candidates especially for private ones in order to get their computer number if you are not from a CAR 147 institute . Hence always remember no need to panic and remember to follow all updates on the user manual of DGCA so that any change in application format or and additional information are not missed. Furthermore, you can receive your computer number on time. Many miscellaneous FAQs are provided by DGCA based on the candidate’s questions regarding many aspects. If you still face any difficulties, you may raise queries on the website. For more interesting blogs and verified aviation jobs follow Aero nefs.

Be Prepared for Cadet Pilot Program Vacancies
It is important to be prepared for any potential Cadet pilot program vacancies that may become available at airlines such as IndiGo, Air Arabia, Qatar Airways, Emirates, Spice Jet, and Singapore Airlines. Due to the halt in airline vacancies for the past few years due to the pandemic, competition for these positions is likely to be high. Therefore, it is advisable to start preparing early for the various stages of the selection process, including the written exam, Compass/CASS test, psychometry assessment, group discussion/group activity, and panel interview. By being well-prepared, you will increase your chances of being successful in securing a position in the Cadet pilot program in the first attempt.

Aviation Popularity and Increased Competition for Airlines in the Post-COVID Era
Pre-covid era, not many people chose this eld. They were unaware of this eld and its minute details. During the covid-era, people’s screen time increased as result of which aviation became famous through various social media platforms. Post-covid-era, the competition to get into the airline has increased tremendously!
These days, people want to complete their CPL exams as soon as possible. Nobody wants to stay at home and wants to get hired by an airline as soon as possible. They feel this way because they don’t want to burden their family. As a result, only those who score above 90% in every exam get selected, not those who clear the exam.

  • Cadet programs change their pilot screening and selection process from time to time. They'll interview one-on-one for a while, then switch to an interviewing panel or board. Questions can change or be rotated throughout the year. We at Golden Epaulettes will update you with the latest question banks!
