The basic eligibility to appear in this exam is, an aspirant should have completed their Masters' or is in the final year of their Post-Graduation. As you are from the Statistics background, you can choose any of the subjects either UGC NET Commerce or CSIR NET in Mathematical Science. But being from this background, you should go for CSIR NET in Mathematical Science rather than UGC NET. CSIR NET and UGC NET are the same in every aspect, but the little difference is that CSIR NET is conducted only for Science background students and UGC NET is conducted for all the other background like Arts, Literature, Management, etc.

According to the UGC NET guidelines, you can apply for the exam in the subjects of your post-graduation or related subjects. As you have done MBA in Finance and Marketing, so you can appear for the exam in UGC NET Economics, UGC NET Commerce and UGC NET Management.
