There is no restriction for distance education.

In case of distance education there is no restriction. However, if you pass two qualifications in the same year, both would not be valid. My suggestion is to plan in such a manner that two qualifications are completed in two different years.

Distance education students can pursue two degrees
TNN | Feb 2, 2013, 12.43AM IST
ALLAHABAD: In a fillip to distance learning programmes in the country, the Distance Education Council (DEC) has decided that though students cannot pursue two degree programmes simultaneously, they can pursue two programmes simultaneously through distance or combination of distance and regular modes.
Uttar Pradesh Rajashri Tandon Open University PRO Prabhat Mishra in a press release said the DEC has decided to allow students to pursue two or more programmes simultaneously in various combinations.
According to the decision of the DEC communicated to UPRTOU vice-chancellor Prof AK Bakshi, while a student cannot pursue two degree programmes simultaneously, he can do the same through distance or combination of distance and regular modes from the same or different university/institution in various combinations.

Thanks experts for your advice. Since 2 programmes are allowed at a time, ca+ mcom + mba would make it 3 so i cannot pursue i believe???
