Executive MBA programs in India typically have a duration of 1 to 2 years. The exact duration can vary depending on the specific business school or institution offering the programme and the format of EMBA.
Some Executive MBA programs are designed to be completed in one year, and they are often more intensive, with a heavier workload. Others may be spread out over two years, allowing working professionals to balance their job responsibilities with their studies more easily.
The choice of programme duration can depend on the preferences and needs of the students and the structure of the specific EMBA program.

The age limit of a candidate should be minimum 25-27 years for an executive MBA program.
However, the age limit for an Executive Master of Business Administration (EMBA) programme in India can vary from one business school to another. Unlike traditional full-time MBA programs, EMBA programs typically cater to experienced professionals who are in mid- to senior-level management roles and often have several years of work experience.
