Ans: Considering your background you can do a full time MBA. Another option is to try for Executive MBA if you will have more than 5 years experience by next year. There is not much scope of Distance MBA and should be done only if you are not able to leave your job.

Career

Hello sir.Could you pls suggest best colleges for pharmacy sciences in Punjab? I will be very thankful to you

Ans: Hi,

Punjab is not a district; it is a state. To gain admission into an undergraduate (UG) program, you must either write an entrance exam or go through the state selection board. Given this context, it is challenging to provide specific advice.

If you are interested in pursuing pharmacy, visit the website of the respective college to find information about the Standards of Instruction for Pharmacy (SIF) through the Pharmacy Council of India (PCI). The institution may have shared important details about their programs. You can choose colleges based on their infrastructure.

Don’t focus solely on placements. If you have the right skills, you will naturally secure a placement. However, do not stop at completing your UG; you should also aim to pursue a postgraduate (PG) program, as it will provide you with more exposure.

If financial constraints prevent you from pursuing PG studies, consider entering pharma marketing after completing your UG. There are plenty of opportunities to excel in marketing.

If you would like get more information, please come to me with a selected list of colleges, and I will be able to assist you further.

Career

My son was born in Maharashtra, and has a Birth-certificate of Maharashtra, but we are permanent residents of Delhi. Is my son eligible to get its benefit in terms of local reservation in MHTCET-2025/

Ans: Hi Rajiv,
As your son born in Maharashtra, you cannot claim a domicile certificate from Maharashtra. To be eligible for a domicile certificate, one needs to have resided in the state for the last 15 years. Therefore, having only a birth certificate is not sufficient. I hope I have answered your question.

Sir, I got retired on 30-Jun-24 after attaining the age of 58. I do not have any further contribution to PF. I would like to know if PF gives interest for next 3 years. In other words, when I withdraw PF at the age of 61 in Jun-2027, would PF have paid interest for 3 years from Jul-24 to Jun-27.

Ans: If no contributions are made for more than three years after retirement, the account becomes inoperative.
It stops earning interest.
The existing balance remains safe.
