There is really nothing do as soon as you finish your graduation. You have to go another step, and do your Masters in Statistics, preferably from a good college. Once you have completed your Masters, you have two options primarily - job market or higher studies. If you opt for higher studies then institutes like ISI, TIFR, IITs provide you huge scope of further research, and you can also go to foreign universities.

After successfully completing masters you can become a business analyst, research officer, data analyst or even an investigator. Government exam is conducted by Union Public Service Commission to recruit officers to Indian Statistical Services every year. You can try that as well.

Lastly, if research interests you then you can explore the options of doing actuarial sciences. Actuarial aspirants generally join actuarial society along with you graduation.
