I'm a diploma mechanical engineering student, this is my final year. I’m totally confused. What should I do after completing diploma in mechanical engineering?

After completion of your three years Diploma in Mechanical Engineering course, you can pursue your higher studies in Bachelor's degree courses like B.E/ B.Tech, etc.,. Being a Diploma holder, you are eligible to get admission in second year of four years B.E/ B.Tech course through lateral entry admission process. You need to appear in lateral entry examinations like LEET, ECET, JELET, etc., which is conducted by your respective state technical board to get admission in second year of four years B.E/ B.Tech course.

Without any doubt, I suggest you to go with B.E/ B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering after successful completion of Diploma in Mechanical Engineering. Yes, Diploma in Mechanical Engineering course is an Undergraduate course which is not equivalent to Bachelor Degree. In order to find good number of job opportunities after completion of studies, I would recommend you to go with Bachelor Degree in Mechanical Engineering course. If you are interested then you may even go with M.E/ M.Tech in Mechanical Engineering course.
