Secondly, even if it were inducted, don't you think IAF doesn't have a matching A/C or even superior, in this case, Su-30MKI which has been in force for a while.
We have sufficient means to counter Su-30 MKI. (JF-17, J-10, F-16 MLU, F-16 Blk 50+).
Considering, China already operates the Su-30 MKK it is highly likely that some features may have been incorporated on J-10 and JF-17 to counter any threat posed by Su-30 MKI. Not to mention, it will be backed up by Saab-2000 AEW and Chinese AWACS.
Thirdly, you are forgetting numerical superiority of IAF.
Perhaps, a glimpse of history (1948 and 1965) may refresh your memory. Numerical differences do not matter.
Even your ACM admitted that the current inventory of the IAF has reduced significantly.
