Dear Abhay,
Have you decided where to apply? The entrance exams will differ. If you are planning for USA, you must take GRE and an English language test such as IELTS or TOEFL. A portfolio might be required too. For other countries, GRE is not required on the whole, you must still take the English language tests.

Yes, you are eligible for both the courses. But, you will have to appear for entrance tests and get a good rank to get admission in the top colleges.

Yes, you can definitely choose M.Des. after doing B.Tech in mechanical engineering. You can either go for industrial or transportation design, both are equally good in terms of placement and are relevant according to your degree.
There are only two colleges that have M.Des. in transport design:
1. MITID, Pune
2. UPES, Dehradun
Top colleges for M.Des. in industrial design are:
1. Lady Sri Ram College, DU Delhi
2. NIT, Bhubaneshwar
