Yes forensic science have good scope in India.  If you have a desire to learn forensic science then obviously it will make a best career out of you  . If you do masters in forensic science then you can get a package starting from Rs. 6 lakhs per annum . But your job will not be that easy , you will have to work more harder than your salary package . Mostly you will get jobs in government sectors.  As of right now India is facing shortage in forensic scientist, so you can have a better position in job . But your mental and physical capability should be good in this field.

Strong Analytical Skills

Keen Observation

With significant growth in crime rate and criminals becoming even smarter than cops and judges, the role of forensic scientists has increased exponentially and India is facing an acute shortage of forensic scientists who can help courts in deciding the criminal cases. Though the job of a forensic scientist is demanding, lack of skilled professionals signifies that there are lots of potential for youngsters. Agreeing upon the fact that India has dearth of forensic scientists, it cannot mean that anyone with average skills can get a job in forensic science departments of government agencies as it requires confident and skilled professionals.
