I won't be surprised if F-18 SH future variant is selected, its a good bird and have excellent prospects.
Bhai, there's a reason why MRCA went to Rafale... here's the clue; it wasn't technical requirements alone.

IN is even more fiercely independent and indigenization-oriented than IAF. What's more; they're supporters of more commonality.Arrey i know, i followed every development in MMRCA process.
Something that heavily weighted against F-18s in 2009.
1. Practically no ToT for Radar and ECMs.
2. Lower TWR, 0.93 with clean config and 50% fuel.
3. USN looking forward to replace F-18SHs with F-35s around 2020, which seems unlikely now b'coz of delays in JSF project.
4. Strings attached.
Indian Navy don't have any issues with ToT, so Hornets has a fair chance to win N-MRCA.

My inkling is that, IN will not go for foreign aircraft as INS Vishal will join us easily around 2020-22. By that time N-PAK FA (which Russia also wants) will come as an offshoot of standard production of air force PAK FA. We should go for that. Or even develop AMCA into a totally Naval dedicated fighter like how Super Hornets became a Navy fighter type. HAL has experience now after making Tejas' naval variant. AMCA could also be modified like that. Being lighter and smaller than PAK FA, it would serve as an excellent carrier aircraft.
If this doesn't happen in worst case scenario, IN might go for Rafale-M for additional systems commonality with IAF Rafales.
Please note that MiG-29K also was considered along the same lines (at least systems wise if not structure-wise).
No dear, its very much on....I have heard that the Naval LCA is dead?

If Navy will go for Birds it will beogical to have
#1. Rafale M : with india having production Lines fir IAF its the most suitable bird for IAF,IN and Nuclear Command
#2. Mig29 K : they ae familier wit it. Remember IAF favored havily for Mirages.....
#3. N PAK FA and LCA : Depends on Time and Availability. These will be Good Home Made Choices. If IN has stealth in Mind PAKFA is the answer.
I dont think American birds or an other hv chances. ToT issues and Sanctions will be biggest hurdles
does it matter
