They dont have female fighter pilots... but they have a few female (cheetak) helicopter pilots and thts it... no cargo plane, jet pilots or fixed wing female pilots.

No female fighter pilots yes, but they do fly fixed wing aircrafts.

Women Fighter Pilots are allowed under Short Service Commission. If have any doubts you are free to keep IAF website as the source.

Dont have much Idea about that, but under the rules of SSC a Women can become a Flying officer, Even on fighter jets. Otherwise there is no purpose for that picture.

A women officer is posted as Pilot or a Navigator or a Technical or a Ground Duty officer. They play all the roles equal to men. I think they they are not a part of "Garud Commandos"

Except one.IAF does not allow women to be fighter plane pilots.

Mate, it is a well known and well publicised fact that women can't be fighter pilots in IAF/IN although there are quite a few women in IAF flying Cheetahs,An-32,Il-76 and IL-78. And TBH there's nothing sexist about it, it is sensible- it takes more than $1million to train a IAF fighter pilot so it would be uneconomical and stupidity to spend such huge amounts for the women to turn around after a few years and leave for pregnancy. Also like SF (where women also aren't allowed) the fighter corps is on that requires a core of experienced and competent veterans and a cumulative knowledge gaining experience wherein all members constantly home and improve their skills. As such you need committed people who are to stay in service for a while. And you can't have IAF ordering or punishing women for having children, that would cause a huge amount of controversy and headache.

No women pilots, says Air Force Vice Chief

Nope. Women are not allowed in fighter pilot's roles. Short commissioned service is active on written but really not followed. Maybe they provide secondary combat relief but not directly engage with fighter jets. Only aviation they can do is transports and navigation. Neither attack helicopters nor fighter jets are allowed to them. Even ACM Naik had a big debate on this.
