Only reason why India went for the Rafale over the Typhoon is costs.. They're already running Mirage 2000's and there's a lot of cross-over in tech/training/etc..

That's one of the reasons as to why the Tyhoon would be a great choice for the navy (with the other being that it's far more capable than the Rafale) in that in terms of current training/tech/longterm costs a carrier version would not only be capable but also workable/affordable in the long term.
