The piece of paper may or may not be worth much. But, especially coming from an Indian tech environment, an MBA provides important skills to analyse and understand the entire business environment -- marketing, finance, organisational behaviour, etc. This is important both as a developer to understand why decisions that might not make sense from a technical perspective are made and will also help you in a startup or other entrepreneurial environment where you need a wide approach. Unfortunately MBAs are becoming too common and qualities vary widely so only some MBAs from top tier schools offer the salary boost that they used to provide.
