Hi Jayanth,
First and foremost, heartiest congratulations on securing 9.0 points in your 10th. There are various career options available these days. However, I would recommend that you first concentrate on your 11th and 12th standard as it is very crucial in setting up a firm foundation.
Before you decide what to do after 10th std, it is important that you become aware of a critical factor for success in your chosen profession. Your exam scores are one part of it considering how competitive it is to land a seat in the hallowed campuses of the IITs and other prestigious institutions.
Lack of strong understanding of the basics will hinder your ability to grasp the advanced topics that will be covered in college. For this reason alone, it is important that you take your 11th & 12th studies seriously.
Science, Commerce & Humanities are the three streams available after 10th for 11th & 12th class studies and you have to choose one of them for your further studies.
I see a strong inclination towards Science, as you wish to pursue Aeronautical Engineering.
Aeronautical engineering is one of the most challenging branches of engineering. It has a wide scope of growth in the field of engineering. This field is concerned mostly with the technical as well as the mechanisms of the flying aircrafts. This is an emerging field. This field deals with the development of new technologies in aviation and defence systems. This field mainly consists of the construction, designing, working, testing, operation, maintenance of the space craft's, satellites, missiles, space vehicles, etc.,
These are the top Aerospace/Aeronautical colleges in India
1.Indian Institute of Technology Bombay
2.Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur
3.Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur
4.Indian Institute of Technology Madras
5.PEC University of Technology , Chandigarh
6. Bengal Engineering and Science University , West Bengal
7.Manipal Institute of Technology, Karnataka ,Manipal
8.Sathyabama University ,Chennai
9.Acharya Institute of Technology ,Bangalore
10.Amrita School of Engineering ,Bangalore
For admission in a bachelor's degree, you need to complete 10+2 examination with science subject such as physics, maths and chemistry. For IITs, It is mandatory to qualify in the Joint Entrance Examinations (J.E.E). The duration for this course is 4 years.

Hi Abhishek,
I would suggest that you do your Bachelors in Automation and Control (part of Mechanical) if you wish to pursue your Masters in Production.
The field of Instrumentation has undergone rapid changes in recent times with the advent of real time applications, high speed computing, data acquisition and feedback systems, high speed telemetry, advanced remote control systems to name a few.
Graduates of this discipline find employment in automated production process industries like steel, cement, automobiles, rubber, food products and packaging. CNC controlled machines and equipment, computer aided manufacturing, robotics and automation are all growing and expanding.
Another aspect of Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering lies in the engineer's involvement in field of Automation. Automation being one of the latest trend in all Industries, is therefore highly in need for expertise in the field of Electronics and Instrumentation to achieve the requirements. Control and Optimization is another important criterion in many Industries. Electronics and Instrumentation engineers having good exposure in these areas will be highly effective in solving various critical needs of the Industries Focus Areas Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering is a versatile field focuses on areas like Telecommunication, Robotics, Biomedical, Computer Control in Process applications, VLSI, Fiber Optics etc…
Job Oppurtunities Electronics and Instrumentation Engineers have a bright future ahead of them as they are needed by almost all Industries in various cadres like Design, Development, Fabrication, Inspection, Quality control, Maintenance and Service and so on.
