Hi Ramesh,
The answer to your question actually depends on your requirement like what are your career prospects, what profile or exp you carry, which domain/field you want to opt for, etc.
Further as far as MBA in Logistics & SCM is concerned. Performance of supply chain is directly proportional to the productivity of a company. With the retail boom in the country, a career in SCM is both challenging and rewarding option. You could get the following job profiles after completing the required qualifications: Commodity Buyer, Supply Planner, Supplier Manager, Purchasing Executives, Implementation Manager, Procurement Officer.
Hope it helps.

Hi Vibhu,
Full time mode is the best mode to study any of the courses. Whether it is retail management course or other. But this is ideal for professionals who do not want to quit their regular job and still want to add on to their qualifications. Freshers who are starting off in the industry can also benefit from this. With technological advancement, distance learning can be your first choice of study. Depending on the candidate's profile, the kind of opportunities will almost be similar as regular MBA.
