Yes you can go for DNB after BAMS but there is some eligibility.
Diplomate of National Board is for medical graduates with an MBBS degree so candidates with BAMS need to fulfill some other requirements or bridge courses.
While DNB is primarily available to MBBS graduates many specializations like Ayurvedic medicine or integrated healthcare may offer opportunities for BAMS graduates, but these options are limited.
