paypal subscription with recurring trial period

With paypal pdt subscription, what I want to achieve is this:

I want users to subscribe on discounted rate for 12 months and later regular rate will start.

Is it possible to charge $10 every month for 12 months and after 12 months $15 every month? (that is trial period of 12 months with 10$/ month and the regular charge of $15/month).

Do we have such facility in paypal PDT subscription module?

What I see in documentation is it provide only 2 trial periods but what I want its recurring trial period.

No, you cannot set up multiple recurring payments in a single flow. However, you can of course set up one recurring payment for the value of all subscriptions combined.
E.g. 10*0.99 for a 9.99 recurring payment for 10 subscription of 0.99. (Note however, that by default recurring payments can only be increased by 20% in price unless you're using Direct Payment Recurring Payments).

I believe the issue is that you could indeed include multiple billing agreements in a SEC flow, but not for multiple recurring payments profiles. In fact, you can specify up to 10 billing agreements in SetExpressCheckout. These would be for use with reference transactions as opposed to recurring payments.
