The 100 hrs on type is an Indian DGCA requirement for expats to go fly for an Indian company. No way around this. If you have no time on type, I would not spend the money to remove the circling restriction. Also, most of these countries that want the circling restrction removed want ALL restrictions removed for ALL type rating you hold. You also have to remember, most of the people getting these jobs have significant large narrow body/wide body PIC.
I know of a couple of companies that don't even count jet time that is less than 100,000lbs.
