which is better after bca mca commerce or mca management?

MCA degree is a better option after BCA. Specialization area can be selected according to your interest. Management stream will help you to have Manager Position in top IT firms. Commerce stream will help you to have technical savvy jobs in finance. Also you can take up the position of software professional in private firms or in banks.

After the BCA I recommend only the MCA not the commerce or MBA because you are from the technical line background and you must have to take your PG degree otherwise you may be face problems while go for interview.

And even after done the MCA you will be eligible to write the GATE exam where direct after qualify the GATE with good ranks Indian Company direct recruit that candidates like ONGC, BHEL,NTPC etc. or you can choose IIT's or IIIT's etc. for your M.tech degree.

But if you done commerce or MBA then you will ne not eligible for that test.
