The ATS did not reach India until late in the war, India asking for volunteers in May 1945.

As far as is known they wore the standard cap badges.

In November 1945 it was noted that the only British troops permitted to wear the bush hat - Officially described as Hats, Gurkha - were the ATS. The photo shows it worn by a party of them.
