DY Patil University, Navi Mumbai, offers a two-year online MBA delivered fully online. It is described as a 2-year UGC-entitled programme. The campus is in Sector 7, Nerul, Navi Mumbai.

You can explore more Online MBA options on Career Bhavan.
Fees and Payment Schedule
Reported fees differ slightly by source. One source lists the online MBA fee at ₹1,70,000, while Careers360 lists ₹1.75 lakh across specializations such as Finance, Digital Marketing and Hospital and Healthcare Management. The fee is generally the same across specializations, so a working figure is about ₹1.7 to ₹1.75 lakh in total. Fees are usually paid semester-wise, and EMI and scholarship options are reported by some sources. This puts DY Patil Navi Mumbai in the mid-range for online MBAs in India, above IGNOU, LPU and VGU Online, and below premium programmes such as Symbiosis. Fees and scholarships change between sessions, so talk to a Career Bhavan counsellor to confirm the current schedule before you apply.
Programme Structure
The MBA runs for 2 years across 4 semesters, with learning and exams delivered online. The university lists these specializations on its website:
Marketing & Sales Management
Data Science & Business Analytics
Digital Marketing & AI
HRM & People Analytics
Hospital & Healthcare Management
Finance
E-commerce & Retail Management
Operations & Supply Chain Management
Product Management
Fintech & Digital Banking
Entrepreneurship & Venture Strategy
An "MBA Plus" variant is also listed. Specialization lists differ between sources, so confirm which are open for your intake. Ask the admissions team about live class schedules, exam format and whether any campus visit is required.
Eligibility and Admission
You need a bachelor's degree with 50% or more marks, and admission is merit-based. Admission is handled online: you submit the application form with your documents and the application fee. Confirm with the university whether any relaxation applies for reserved categories, whether work experience is required, and whether an entrance exam is needed. The regular full-time MBA at the same university uses an entrance test and interview, but the online programme is reported to be merit-based.
2026 Dates and the Next Intake
The university shows admissions as open for 2026. I couldn't confirm exact intake months or last dates from reliable sources. Check the current deadline with the university or a Career Bhavan counsellor, or browse the DY Patil listing on Career Bhavan for the latest details.
Who Should Consider It
This programme suits working professionals and graduates who want a UGC-entitled MBA from a Navi Mumbai-based university with a wide choice of specializations and a mid-range budget. It is a poor fit if you want the on-campus experience, an IIM or top-tier B-school brand, or guaranteed placements. Placement support is generally limited to career services, so outcomes depend on your own profile and experience. If you are earlier in your career, explore PG courses better suited to your stage.
How It Compares to Other Online MBAs
