Each institute has its own set of requirements for GME sponsorship. However, generally speaking, you must have obtained a minimum of 60% on your first attempt to pass 12th Science. Additionally, you need a bachelor's degree in either mechanical engineering or naval architecture and a final exam score of at least 60% overall.
In your scenario, you may not be eligible for GME sponsorship from all institutes because you passed 12th Science on your second attempt and received a 65% overall score in BE Mechanical.
