Well!!
Answer one thing do you like coding, is it something that excites you.

Are you good with people, do you like management and other things.

If the answer for both is yes, don’t go with MBA
If answer for 1st is yes and 2nd is no - don’t go with MBA
If the answer for 1st is No and 2nd is yes - go with MBA

I'll say atleast give CAT/GMAT with preparation. Nobody knows if you get into top IIMs, ISBs, SP Jains etc then well worth it. Else not really at 12 YOE

Because taking mba from a good college, even executive mba, takes almost 20 + lakh. No use of taking from a smaller place, u cannot flaunt it.

You can choose in between if to learn or to save and invest with the fees of mba.... Which ever gives u contentment

Then better to go for technical upgrade, rather than doing mba...

If you want to do MBA you can do it outside India like European countries, and settle there
