I read somwhere, that IA employed British mercenaries as pilots to provide recon and support the ground troops in operations against LTTE, in Sri Lanka.
Any good knowledge on this piece of history?

PMCs are by nature, mere infantry. Deploying them in PoK is useless because they'll get killed faster than any hope of GDP growth in Pakistan.
They're good for advising armies who don't know how to even hold a weapon, rear security and COIN ops.

They're more police, less military.
