Hi Ankush,
I have no idea about ICFAI and IGNOU but I do not hold very good views about them. IMT no doubt is very popular for the DLP MBA program thing but I know loads of people who are doing their MBA from there and I see no value addition in them in terms of their attitude towards work.. or knowledge enhancement. Anyone and everyone can join IMT and can do his/her MBA.
I will suggest that you atleast check your options for LBSIM (Lal Bahadur Shastri Institute of Management). They have an evening program for working executives where you are required to attend classes atleast 4-5 time a week for 2 hours in the evening. The course is for 3 years duration and the Institute claims that the curriculum is the same as that of regular program.
Though LBS is not that great but yes among the institutes I know that have evening programs this is is one of the best. And besides, a lot depends on the student itself. You should have an ojective in mind... You need to ask yourself.. Why do you want to do MBA? A: to get a masters degree that will help you in promotions/better job in the future or B: You actually want to learn some management fundas and want to have some knowledge enhancement.
FMS also has an evening program but I think for the evening classes they have visiting faculty which cannot devote as much time as permanent faculty and which will also not take pains in addressing your queries.
Bharteeya Vidyapeeth at CP or somewhere clase to that area have an evening program but I do not have any idea about their programs/faculty and the likes.
If you only have to get a degree or a diploma then i suggest opt for the institute that does not stress you and burden you with assignments/projects/case studies. But if you really want to learn and develop a professional approach towards your work then better opt for an institute that emphasises on teaching/knoledge and personality develoment.
