    You can pursue MBA in -
    - regular mode
    - online mode
    - distance mode
    As you have 5 year of experience you can also explore on possibilities of MBA ( executive ) from XLRI, IIM, IBS, NMIMS, DMS IIT, FMS etc. CAT /CMAT/ GMAT / institutional test are most accepted exam for top MBA courses. For e. g IIM Kashipur require EMAT score and minimum experience of 3 year for its executive MBA courses. IIM Calcutta is one of the b school for executive MBA in India which require 5 year of experience ( 1 year residential programme). .
