T-50 is a a Heavy 5th gen Air superiority Multi role Fighter
AMCA --Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft. .Both have there respective place.
When a Tailored made Heavy Fighter is under development, didn't see much use of AMCA in IAF.
Not to mention Other 4.5th Gen fighters in fleet (post 2020).
AMCA - Deep penetration Strike, Nuclear Strike, Dedicated ground attack. (replacement for jag's and mig 27)
Those capabilities are not so unique,
There are some upcoming upgrades for Jag's, they are Not getting retired anytime soon. In addition having a Fighter limited to one role is not good In a Modern Airforce. But still don't see much use of a Medium class 5th Gen fighter.
Edit: AMCA Project should be limited to R&D purpose.
