Where BAMS Seats Actually Are & How Quotas Split
BAMS seats are divided between Central All India Quota and State Domicile authorities. Here is the exact seat allocation breakdown.

AACCC All India Quota (AYUSH)

State AYUSH Domicile Quota
Reserved for students holding state domicile. Crucial category benefits (OBC/EWS/SC/ST) apply.
Deemed & Central Universities
Open merit institutions across India with state-of-the-art hospitals and zero domicile barriers.
Open Private & Management
