Is M. Design from IIT-IDC Bombay really worth it?

I am working for 1.5 years in a Hyderabad startup as UI/UX Designer. After Btech I did a certification in UI/UX and got job from the institute placement only.

Having massive issues getting anything done at work the past couple of weeks.

Any insight would be so helpful!
