I strongly advise you that if any body offering Law Degree in Correspondence that is not valid for (BCI) Bar Council of India.
Only Regular 3 Year LLB/BL Course is recognised by BCI to Practice as an advocate. and more over now one has to clear AIBE = All India Bar Exam after completing LLB 3Yr Regular Course. to Practice as an advocate.
However if you are really interested, one I can recommend is IGNOU- Master in Intellectual Property Laws.(MIPL)- Master Degree.
Note: BCI recognizes only 3yr Regualar LLB/BL Courses.

Thanks a lot Suresh. Actually i am a newly Qualified CA, working in industry. Pursuing 3 years of regular program of LLB is not possible for me. but i want Law degree... how is it possible??? let me clarify that i dont want to practice as an advocate.
For Doing LLB/BL one should go through regular college only. No Correspondence allowed.
However if you don't want to Practice but just for the Knowledge then you can go for Bachelor in General Laws(BGL)from any Distance Education Wing of Universities in MADRAS/CHENNAI or any other Place.
However my sincere advise to you since you are qualified CA either you can go directly for Ph.D(Inter Disciplinary) in National Law school University which is one of the Best in our India.
Other wise you can also go for MBL - Master of Business Laws(2 Years) from the same NLS in Distance Education.
Ph.D. Degree (Inter-disciplinary) of NLS requires any of the following:
i) A Master’s Degree in any subject relevant to the field of research with a Bachelor’s Degree in Law ; or ii) Passed the Company Secretaryship examination conducted by the ICS in India and been awarded Associate Membership of the Institute (ACS); or
iii) Passed the Chartered Accountants examination conducted by the Institute of Chartered Accountants and been awarded Membership of the Institute of Chartered Accountants; or
iv) M.Phil Degree in the relevant subject with excellent academic background; or
v) MBL Degree from NLSIU only.
So kindly dont waste Money,time and energy for Least things when you have eligibility at Masters and Ph.D Level.(Because of CA.)
