It really doesn't matters whether you pursue degree course from India or any other country, the important thing is that the degree must be recognized by the Government of India. Now, if you hold a bachelors degree, recognized by Government of India, you will be eligible to apply for the Flying Branch of Indian Air Force provided you are within the age limit of 19-23 years. If you are over 23 years of age, you will not be considered eligible for the Flying Branch irrespective of your academic qualification.

If you are eligible, you will have to qualify Combined Defense Service Exam conducted by the Union Public Service Commission. Qualifying this exam is mandatory to be considered eligible for the Flying Branch of Indian Air Force (Permanent Commission).
