Actually, yes, as a B. Tech in AME along with AME DGCA course, I can become a pilot, though extra training is needed and added on certifications. So, the course is B.Tech AME which is completely about aircraft maintenance and repair and ensures the aircraft compliance with aviation standards while AME DGCA course leads you to qualify for work under a licensed Aircraft Maintenance Engineer.
However, when one has completed a Commercial Pilot License training program at a flying school approved by the DGCA, they are ready to seek a career as a pilot. Having an AME background may give you a head start since it gives one in-depth knowledge of aircraft systems, which would be very handy during flight training and enhance one's understanding of aviation operations.
It could make you a well-rounded aviation professional with expertise in both maintenance and piloting. Be sure to meet the medical, educational, and age requirements for CPL training and prepare for the financial and time commitments associated with flight school.
