No, you are not eligible to apply for JRF or Junior Research Fellowships just after passing your B.SC

To apply for the JRF you have to appear in the CSIR NET exams.
This exam is conducted two times in a year

Minimum educational qualifications required to appear in this exam is M.SC with minimum 55% marks in case of candidates belonging to general and OBC category and minimum 50% marks in case of SC/ST candidates

Also if you want to apply for JRF than your age should be less than 28 years
OBC, SC,ST,women candidates can apply till 33 years

Selection procedure involves written tests

So complete your M.SC with minimum 55% marks and than apply for the CSIR NET exams
