A pharmacy technician must attend the same school as any other person to become a pharmacist. Depending on your state, you will probably have to take a couple years of basic classes (pre-requisits to pharmacy school) and then enrol in the actual pharmacist program. The degree required by most states is a PharmD.
Some of the good Pharma Institutes in India are:
1. Al-Ameen College of Pharmacy, Bangalore
2. Birla Instittue of Technology, Mesra
3. Lovely Professional university
