No, you are not eligible to appear in AIIMS entrance exam, because one must have to fulfill the below given eligibility criteria to appear in AIIMS entrance exam :

** Minimum age must be 17 Years on or before December 31, 2016
** 12th standard from any affiliated school with minimum 60% marks being a General and OBC candidates and minimum 50% being a SC/ST/OPH candidate.

As you have less than 60% marks in 12th standard, so being a general category candidate, you are not eligible to appear in AIIMS entrance exam.

Yes definitely you are eligible to appear in AIIMS MBBS entrance exam after completing your BSc with first division as if you are within the age limit specified by AIIMS Medical Council to appear in AIIMS Entrance Exam.

As per my knowledge, you are not eligible to apply for AIIMS entrance exam after completing B.Sc with 1st division as a General category candidate and have less than 60% in 12th class.

No you are not eligible for AIIMS exam.
Because for AIIMS exam the candidate should have attained or will attain the age of 17 years at the time of admission. You have done your graduation, so your age will be greater than 17 years. So in this case you are not eligible for the exam.
And the Minimum aggregate of the marks in English, Physics, Chemistry and Biology obtained in the qualifying examination required for appearing in the examination are 60% for General Category candidate and 50% for SC/ST category candidates. And you have also an aggregate percentage less than 60% so you are not eligible.
