DGCA Computer Number: New Candidate and DigiLocker Guide

The DGCA Computer Number identifies a Flight Crew candidate in the Pariksha examination system. This guide explains the decision points and preparation steps while leaving current document rules and eligibility to the latest official portal instructions.

First decide whether you already have a Computer Number

New candidate: use the New Candidate registration route if you have never been allotted a Flight Crew Computer Number.
Existing/Old Candidate: if DGCA has already allotted a number, follow the registration/migration path provided for existing candidates and use the same identifier.
The official Flight Crew FAQ says a candidate is authorised to have only one Computer Number for Flight Crew examinations.

DigiLocker auto-generation: who can use it?

The Pariksha portal offers an auto-generation route for candidates who meet its current eligibility criteria. The portal states that eligible Flight Crew candidates must satisfy its nationality and education-record conditions, have matching information for the DigiLocker flow, and meet the other on-screen requirements. Data or photograph mismatches can prevent automatic generation.

Do not assume this flow is available to every board, candidate category or exceptional case. Open the official form and follow the latest eligibility notice shown there.

Prepare before submitting

Use your own email address and mobile number as directed by the official portal.
Have education certificates/mark sheets, identity/address evidence and photo/signature files ready if requested by the current form.
Match personal details against the supporting records; do not guess board names, dates, spellings or document identifiers.
Read the current Flight Crew User Manual and note the file format, size and verification instructions displayed for your route.
Before final submission, review every field. Save the reference number and monitor the official Candidate Login/help-desk channel for the application status.

Common issues to check

Choosing New Candidate when a Computer Number already exists.
Differences between name, date of birth, marks or other education data in official records and the portal/DigiLocker data.
Unreadable or incorrectly formatted uploads.
Using a stale instruction PDF when the notice board has a newer manual or process update.
Missing a portal message or failing to check the application status after submission.

Common questions

Can I apply for more than one DGCA Flight Crew Computer Number?

The official Flight Crew FAQ says a candidate is authorised to have only one Computer Number for Flight Crew examinations. Use the existing-candidate path if you already have one.

Does every candidate qualify for DigiLocker auto-generation?

No. The official Pariksha portal specifies the current eligibility criteria for the auto-generation route. Check those criteria and the on-screen instructions before proceeding.

Can Heading380 check my Computer Number status?

No. Private application status is available through official DGCA Pariksha candidate login or its help desk, not through Heading380.
