No, as per RCI guidelines, students, even after completion of post graduation in psychology from Indian universities, are not entitled to practice as clinical psychologists. They have to complete a two-year M.Phil programme from RCI recognised universities to be eligible. However, you can work as a counsellor after graduation in psychology. You can also teach Psychology as a subject after doing B.Ed. So, if you wish to become a practising psychologist, the minimum qualification is M.Phil.
Hope this helps.
