MBBS

No, you cannot directly pursue a PhD in Medicine after completing your MBBS, as it requires candidates to have a PG degree (MD/MS) or a Master's degree in a relevant field. 

MBBS is considered a professional undergraduate degree, and a higher level of specialisation is typically needed to meet the eligibility criteria for research-based doctoral programs.
