MBA is offered only by Universities and Colleges affiliated to Universities
Institutes which are not affiliated to any University or colleges which have not registered the course with the University give PGDM degrees.

MBA is (masters in business mgt) offered by universities whereas PGDMA is (post graduate diploma in business mgt)offered by pvt.colleges.I suggest u to do MBA from a good institute,rather than PGDM.Infact co.s prefer MBAs over PGDM holders. best of luck.
