No, first you have to appear for the AIBE by BCI. To clear the bar examination is mandatory for all law graduates to be able to practice law.
All state bar councils in India have made it mandatory for advocates who graduated after 2010 to clear this examination. Candidates must ensure that they clear AIBE within two years of their registration in order to be eligible to practice anywhere in the country. They must also register themselves in the local bar in order to practice in the district court.
