What is the scope after completing MBA from an open university like IGNOU?

Dear Akshat,
I would advise you to go for regular MBA. Unfortunately, most of the distance MBA programs just involve waste of time and money and do not give much value in terms of promotion or monetary growth
The market is flooded with MBA from top colleges so to make a difference among the crowd you have to learn new skills which are niche, do online certifications to enhance your knowledge, learn a new domain, switch companies. So, the bottom line is that go for Distance MBA only if you are working somewhere with a designated position else regular MBA is the best option.
Good luck. -

Distance MBA doesn't provide with any such benefits. Since MBA is all about practical approaches and concept clearing, it requires regular brush up on its core subjects and innovative pedagogy. So, I would rather advice you to go for Regular MBA programmes.

Job Opportunities after IGNOU MBA
Such candidates can apply for government jobs in banks, railways, airports, PSUs, etc. Apart from this, candidates can also look for private jobs in sectors such as Finance, Marketing, Human Resources, Accounting, Risk Management, and so on. But, I would advise you to go for regular MBA. -
The recognition which a regular degree provides you that cannot be equivalent to a distance degree. So, unless and until there are no such circumstances that cannot be avoided prefer to go for regular MBA. It helps in better placements and job opportunities.
