Hello Nilesh!

Based on current AYUSH counselling norms, your eligibility seems strong for admission to BAMS. As You've mentioned scoring 50% in PCB and qualifying NEET, which meets the eligibility bar.

According to  AACCC and State-level counselling like Maharashtra AYUSH, students who completed Biology as an additional subject from NIOS are usually considered eligible as long as the board is recognized and NEET is cleared.

Still, it's wise to check with individual colleges or the Maharashtra CET Cell for any specific document-related queries. Keep your NIOS marksheet, NEET scorecard, and eligibility certificates ready at the time of counselling.

So yes, you’re eligible to participate in both All India and State-level counselling for AYUSH courses including BAMS. Focus now on preparing the necessary documents and understanding the seat matrix and counselling timelines.
