Yes, you are eligible to do Diploma course and Degree course without pursuing 12th standard. After completion of your 10th standard, you are eligible to get admission for pursuing three years Diploma course. Once, you have completed three years Diploma course, you are eligible to get direct admission in second year of Bachelor's degree course through lateral entry admission process. So, you can do Diploma course and Degree course without pursuing 12th standard.

Yes, you can do three years diploma course to do degree in future without 12th class. The Diploma courses in the specializations like Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, Electronics and Communication, Computer Science etc. are available, after these courses the diploma holders can study B.E or B.Tech through lateral entry mode. The candidates will be admitted directly to the second year of the engineering course. Candidates will be admitted to the engineering course through entrance examination. So you can study diploma course to do B.E or B.Tech in future.

Yes definitely you can pursue a diploma course in mechanical engineering after completion of your class 10th to pursue a Degree Course in Engineering after completion of diploma course. You can pursue these diploma courses:

Diploma Mechanical Engineering

Diploma in Electrical Engineering

Diploma in Automobile Engineering

Diploma is considered equivalent to 10+2. No matter from which discipline of engineering, you pursue diploma, you will be able to get admission in bachelor's degree. Generally, diploma course candidates go for higher technical courses like B.Tech which stands for Bachelor of Technology.

*For example if a candidate has done diploma in Mechanical engineering, he can apply for Lateral Entry Entrance Test to get admission directly in second year of engineering in Mechanical stream. In order to apply for LEET examination, diploma candidates must have minimum of 60% marks in diploma.

Yes you can pursue Diploma after passing 10th only. Diploma is equivalent to Intermediate so you can opt this after 10th and also after graduation also. There is no any restriction that you have to complete it after 10th only. So no need to worry about this and opt your desired stream only.

Yes, you can do diploma in any discipline like Electrical, Civil, Mechanical, ECE etc and then further proceed to pursue bachelor's degree in technology in same stream. Diploma is considered as equivalent to 10+2. So, there is no need to do 10+2 and pass in it to go for bachelor's degree.

Diploma candidates are eligible for graduation. Technical course is more suitable for you as diploma is itself is a technical course.

But one thing you must remember that few bachelor degree course have specific requirement of courses at higher secondary level such as Bachelor of Engineering degree required a PCM group at higher secondary level i.e; a diploma in engineering degree. Otherwise apart from few courses there is no issue of stream diploma for further studies.

Yes, definitely you can do Diploma courses in Engineering in any discipline to opt B.Tech/ B.E degree course after the completion of Diploma courses without pursuing class 12th.
After completing Diploma course, you can directly take admission in the second year of B.Tech/B.E through lateral entry process to complete your degree.
