I am a Masters in chemistry, and I am pursuing MBA currently. You should understand that what you want to do, you want to do research or you want to join corporate in your future. I tell you one thing clearly, it is very tough to get a job in pure Science stream. So, if you are planning to go for research in chemistry, you should start making up your mind for today itself, because it is a long journey i.e, 2 year M.Sc +5 year Ph.D that to even, if you are lucky and at least 3 post doc (3 years), then you will be eligible to apply for a job in some institute of national importance as assistant professor and there are very slim chance that you will get it, because there would be many who would already be there in line. So, this is only about time period. Ph.D in itself is very mentally strenuous. But, if you are lucky to get Assistant Professor job in some good institute, then there is nothing better than that. If you decide to do, let's say MBA or actuaries, then those things has their own positives and negatives. Like ways, more competition even to enter (for MBA), than it would cost you around INR 18 - INR 20 Lacs, if you are joining IIM. It would take at least 5 years to repay that loan. By chance, if you don't get a job, then you can understand yourself what would be your condition (In IIM's also few students does not land up in any job so you can understand the condition of other colleges). I hope I have given you some glimpse of both things now it is up to you what you want to choose.
