Following are some of the good options for you:
1. Acharya Institute of Technology
2. DSCE
3. NMIT

Considering aeronautical specifically, the placement scenario is not so good. Not many companies come for the domain of aerospace specifically. Other than that the infrastructure and faculty of aeronautical is really good. We have properly maintained labs with good equipment and professors who are very knowledgeable too. Hostels are amazing in Manipal compared to other colleges. There are lot of facilities available for students for their comfort.

Yes, you can pursue aeronautical engineering after completing Diploma and you will also be eligible for direct 2nd year entry in BE/ B.Tech.

You are eligible to seek admission in B.Tech in aeronautical engineering lateral entry at Manipal University based on your Diploma in mechanical engineering. You may refer to university website for admission details.

The best options are computer science engineering and mechanical engineering. Both the fields have better scope as a career and these are evergreen fields. You will find lots of opportunities available in this field. Aeronautical engineering is also good, but there is less scope in India.

You should be qualified in 12th standard or equivalent examination with science stream with physics, chemistry and mathematics as the main subject. You should score a minimum of 80% marks in 12th standard and must qualify AIEEE, BITSAT, JEE with a good score.

Hello Roshan,
Even though mechanical engineering appears to be the first choice. The total number of students, who graduated in mechanical engineering is good, while only handful passes out as aeronautical engineers. In India, a large number of companies will require this specialization. Hence, if opportunities appear to be a bit less at the moment, future holds a great potential for this discipline in India.
I hope it helps. If you have any further questions, kindly revert.

There is no common entrance exam for lateral entry admission in B.Tech after completing Diploma in engineering. Many states conduct LEET exam for lateral entry admission for B.Tech. There are some private universities such as Manipal University, which conduct their own entrance exam for lateral entry for B.Tech.
