Dear Laxmi,
Its a misnomer that PGDM is a diploma course, it's a full fledged post graduate degree and is equivalent to MBA in all respect except that PGDM is provided by AICTE approved autonomous institutes whereas MBA is provided by the University or University affiliated institutes.
For every job where MBA can apply PGDM can also apply be it govt. or private Job.
Also after completing PGDM program you can do Phd if you wish so.
Its only that the name is continuing as Post Graduate Diploma in Management, since IIM's, XLRI etc. were providing this program but since long it has acquired degree status.
