Why is a Drone Pilot License important in India

Drone Pilot License (Remote Pilot Certificate) is mandatory for flying drones above 250 grams for commercial or non-recreational purposes, as per Drone Rules 2021. It ensures legal compliance, safe operations, and access to flight permissions.

What happens if I fly a drone without a License?

Operating without a license can lead to fines, drone confiscation, or even imprisonment. You also risk not getting permissions for flights, lack of insurance, and missed business opportunities.
