    The clear answer is no. A distance BTech degree is not valid in India anymore. It is not approved by the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) and UGC because of a variety of reasons. One important reason is zero practical exposure. Technical programs like BTech are meant for the professional world which demands technical expertise and advanced skills which is not possible in the distance mode. Secondly, there is no lab assistance possible in BTech courses in the correspondence mode, making it less valuable than regular face-to-face BTech programs.

    Dear Harshit,
    Distance B.Tech is invalid not just in India but throughout the world. In fact, there is no any single university in India which offers B.Tech through correspondence. Doing so is the violation of UGC and AICTE norms.
    Good luck.
