LPU is good, no doubt. But, I have heard that LPU is state restricted university, it means they can't offer their distance learning mode apart from Punjab. So, it is better to look other option like Amity University, Annamalai University, Mewar University, Suresh Gyan Vihar university etc. Which are not state restricted for admission.

If you do not have any job right now, if you are not working anywhere then distance MBA does not help. For any corporate, you are as good as a graduate. You won't get a salary at par with those from tier 1 or tier 2 MBA institute. If you are working, you may enhance your knowledge through distance MBA as it may help you to jump in a career where they need someone with an MBA. LPU will. But it is costly. You may opt for Pondicherry University for the same.
