Difference between PGDM, MBA & MMS is that PGDM is a diploma in management which is not a masters degree just like MBA or MMS.MBA is a full time or a part time masters degree in business administration which is not offered by Mumbai university but by other Indian universities like Delhi, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Dehradun and so on . Whereas MMS is a full time masters of management studies just like BMS offered by Mumbai university but which is not offered by some other Indian universities. MMS is required only if you are doing Masters in management studies course offered by Mumbai university. It all depends upon your choice, will & decision whether you want to pursue PGDM, MBA OR MMS. As far as I know is that companies or corporates don't look whether you have pursued MBA, MMS, PGDM , PGPM OR PGDBM.All they look for is that from which college, university or institute you have pursued your management degree, program or diploma. What really matters is the placements and the package offered by the companies visiting the institute from where are pursuing your management course. Even if an Institute has autonomous approval given by the government of INDIA just like IIM, JBIMS, NMIMS, Welingkar, IBS and so on has equal importance in the courses offered by them just like a university recognised or approved by the government .

PGPM, PGDM, PGDBM and MBA are the courses which are offered in a B School and to be honest every MNC in India accepts all the above mentioned courses . Be it PGPM, PGDM, PGDBM & MBA - the companies not only see your qualification but along with these courses they see how much practical knowledge, corporate understanding and exposure a particular candidate has with him/ her . As far as government jobs are concerned for that any masters degree be it MBA, MCOM, MCA, MA , MSC and so on, these post graduation degrees are must . For joining a MNC or a corporate body post graduation is not must , PGPM, PGDM, PGDBM, MBA has equivalent importance and value .
