Answer
Hello Prashant
  I don't know about India however in America we start students into the freefaLL process after three jumps after static line training,this is a standard practice,Most people go the tamdem  route instead of static line,there are many dropzones that offer a week long course to achieve an A lincense it should take about 17 - 20 jumps depending on the student  Norge Roi
