Is AICTE approval required for a Fashion and Luxury Management MBA?
No — not for a university Fashion and Luxury Management MBA degree.

For an online or distance Fashion and Luxury Management MBA, the check that matters is the university's UGC-DEB entitlement. Management education also has a strong autonomous tradition — the IIMs ran as autonomous societies until 2017, and premier online institutes such as IICT and IIPM have for 30+ years.
