I thank you for giving me this opportunity. I'm glad to help you. Academic Differences While an MBA course tends to be more theoretical, a PGDM focuses on the technical aspects, providing exposure to real-life business situations. Also, a PGDM isvery different than a one year PGP offered by many private institutes all across India. I hope this will help you.

The university will award you the degree in case of MBA. The MBA course structure is changed once in 7-8 years generally while the PGDM course curriculum is changed and modified yearly.

Susceptible to Fraudulence Since PGP or PGDM courses are offered by autonomous bodies, students need to be careful while taking admission. Many smaller colleges and institutes make claims or do not have proper accreditation status. MBA degrees are conferred by varsities, and hence there's a lower chance of fraudulent claims. Focus Both MBA and PGDM courses have common core subjects. However, some experts claim most MBA courses focus more on theoretical and technical aspects of management rather than adopting a practical approach. PGP or PGDM courses have an industrial orientation and focus on skills based on market requirements. Cost Factor It has been observed that most MBA courses have lower tuition fees as compared to PGP or PGDM courses. This may be so because mostly government approved universities offer MBA degrees. These universities receive financial aid and grants from the government, making the degree cheaper for the student. In case of a PGP or PGDM degree, students have to bear the cost of the entire programme. However, this is not an ironclad rule. There are MBA degrees which charge high tuition fee (such as IIFT).

PGDM is awarded only by an autonomous deemed institution, MBA is awarded by a university.
