As a rule, misdemeanor does not vacate right to own a firearm. IT may prevent right to carry a handgun or get a permit to carry concealed depending on the conditions of your sentencing.

No.
Federal law prohibits anyone with a misdemeanor domestic violence conviction from owing or possessing a firearm, so even if Indiana law allows it, the answer is still no.
EDIT - wizjp - That's true for "other" misdemeanors, but Federal law treats DV differently from other crimes.
