Before you plunge into finance you got to make it very clear to yourself what exactly you want to do in finance.

in finance either you can do MBA(fin.) or go for MFC by various unversities. however I should make it clear to you that MFC of DFS at delhi University is the first MFC in India and the best. You may not get the same advantage if you pursue MFC from any other university.

another option is that you can pursue courses like Chartered Financial Analyst(of USA and not ICFAI) while working. There are dedicated threads about it at PG.

you can think of Chartered accountancy/cost accountancy, but there are certain clauses for practical training which might not suit you if you are akready a graduate ( more so in the case of CA)

another option is that there are some cerifications like crisil certified and some from NSE hich target stock markets. which give you very narrow but focussed career path.

the final say is yours. use the search tool at PG on above topics

Hope it helps!!!
