GDL Vs MA in Law


So, I have a LLB degree from india and a LLM degree from Uni Leeds,UK. I want to be a solicitor now through completing LPC.

I'm confused between what serves me best a GDL or MA in Law( they have the same course structure and subjects) to undertake an LPC course later on.

While, GDL is a step back and complicates my case as it would be a step down from my qualification , MA in law doesn't really shows that it could fulfil the same purpose as GDL and later someone could take LPC after that.

PS: I need to take either of these courses to study some subjects that weren't covered in LLB in india.
