There are many job options/ profiles available for you after completing a B.Com degree. Financial Risk Manager
Business Analyst
Digital Marketer
Government Jobs - After completing B.Com one can apply for government jobs/ banking jobs by qualifying exams such as UPSC, IBPS, etc. B.Com is the good choice of subject if you are having strong control over subjects of commerce like Accounting, Banking And Financial Services, Economics, Finance, Financial Markets. But on the basis of the feedback of my commerce graduate batchmates of Lovely Professional University I must say that, one should pursue most advanced B.Com (Hons. ) programme from LPU. Some of the Unique features of LPU in perspective to B.Com. (Hons. ) programs are mentioned below just for reference what I able to fetch from recent announcement of LPU,
1. Professional/Industry certifications - Option to choose any 1 of the following:
Certified Management Accountant Institute of Management Accountants, USA or Accounting and Finance Professional - KPMG or ACCA - Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, UK
2.1 course every semester (2-6 sem) to be taught online by foreign faculty/Industry experts
3. Industry visits - Financial Institution (Bank/ NBFC etc. ), Accounting firms (Big five PWC/Deloitte/KPMG/E&Y/get etc. ), some business event (Business Conclave, Conference, Trade fair etc. )

Many students who take online classes are full-time professionals looking to get ahead in their careers. Even if you're not currently working full-time, distance learning courses offer you a flexible schedule that allows you to learn and work at the same time, and pay your way through college.

Hello Pranil Salve, I am afraid that you are not eligible. Diploma in engineering is at best equivalent to 12th. While for MCA eligibility would be graduation in computer. You first need to do BCA and then MCA. I would advise you to download brochure cum application form of Mumbai University and read the eligibility for MCA.
Best wishes to you.
