Hello,
Yes you are eligible for applying into the Merchant navy. The eligibility for merchant navy is 12th with 60% marks. But as you have engineering degree in mechanical engineering then you can directly apply for Indian Navy.
So think about it this is better than Merchant navy as this will gives you the higher rank in the navy.
