Is Indus university PhD in commerce distant? and If it is distant is it validated by ugc?

Dear Unnati,

The Indus University courses list does not have any distance learning courses. All the courses offered by the university are in regular full-time/ part-time mode. The Indus School of Management Studies offers a PhD in Commerce programme in the regular mode. Students who have a post graduate degree in a relevant field with at least 55% marks from a recognised university may apply for this programme. They also need to take the IURAT exam conducted by Indus University to be eligible for the selection process. However, students whp have passed the UGC NET/ CSIR NET or have an M.Phil degree in a relevant field are exempted from the entrance test. The application fee for the PhD Commerce programme is Rs 1,500. Moreover, the Indus University course fee for PhD in Commerce is Rs 65,000 per year (full-time) and Rs 55,500 (part-time).
