Bachelor of Commerce (B.Com.) - Batch of 2026

Offered by Mulund College of Commerce

5Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

Our college infrastructure is very good.

Placements: In my batch, there are 150 students studying with me. The lowest package offered by the college is Rs 15,000 per annum and the highest is Rs 45,000 per annum. Many different companies come for hiring. A minimum of 30 percent of students get the internship.

Infrastructure: In Mulund College of Commerce, there are many facilities like Wi-Fi, labs, computer lab, and 2 libraries available for study. There is also a canteen. I don’t know about medical facilities. Many games are organized by the college like cricket, volleyball, etc.

Faculty: In Mulund College of Commerce, the teachers are very helpful and they are all qualified. The end semester exams are hard. The passing percentage is 35 percent. This college is under NEP. Because of this, the exams are a little bit harder.

Other: I choose this course because I am not very good in study. Many events happen yearly.

Absolutely satisfied with the college curriculum, facilities, and interior.

Placements: It is overall a good college for pursuing engineering. If we talk about placements, then it gives an average package of 7 LPA, and almost 80% of students are placed. The lowest package is of 3 LPA, and the placement season begins from the 3rd year, and most of the students are placed in the 4th year.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi at Pillai College is not good, and students face difficulties in such cases. It is advisable to use our own internet for academic use. The library is huge, and all the required resources are available, but there is a lot of noise there, and it is almost impossible to concentrate.

Faculty: Teachers are very professional and the best. They have deep knowledge about the subjects. The course curriculum is appropriate and helpful for future use and job exposure. It makes students ready for the industry, 50% rest depends on the students themselves.

Other: Best College you can choose this one.

Good placement and infrastructure. A teaching plan should be devised.

Placements: The placement cell has been successful in bringing in companies to place the students for the previous 2 - 3 years. The committee is helpful and very cooperative with students. For the past two years, we have had multiple companies like Colgate-Palmolive and Envirocare Labs that have offered internships and jobs at the college.

Infrastructure: Hostels are not present. The cafeteria is not great, and the food is not up to the mark. Lab facilities are good. Classrooms are also good. Infrastructure has improved a lot since the renovation was done. Proper maintenance activities take place from time to time

Faculty: Good faculty members and encouraging staff. Curriculum planning can be better. There is no solid teaching plan as such. Here, the exam cell is very strict about its policies, and strict action is taken. Attendance is also taken seriously. Exams are easy to pass if efforts are taken.

Not upto the mark. Could genuinely improve way better, but I wish I hadn't taken the admission.

Placements: 18% got placement, but in below-average roles. The highest package was 4.5 LPA, the lowest was 1.8 LPA. Securities Private Limited recruited. 22% students got internships in different companies like Make My Trip, Yatra, Gillette, Medimix, Lake, etc. From our course, that was (18+22=40), rest 60% were left unemployed. The internship itself was very low-paying. The marketing head role is offered. ( In its regional branch office) One girl got it in lake company.

Infrastructure: Classrooms were straight out of colonial India. Pracheen, as we call it in Hindi. They had a library, and they made us pay for it, but they didn't have any books other than the courses offered in college. Not 1 book outside of it, I mean, this is disgusting, we deserve to read whatever content we like. We have paid for it. The labs had terrible sales with outdated interiors and machines. They didn't even have a safety kit. ( I got injured on my finger, and the blood was flowing fast, and they didn't have a bandage. How terrible could it be?

Faculty: Except for 1-2, every other teacher is not even a teacher, they are doing an internship after their Master's. They don't even know the concepts fully themselves. Course is relevant according to its sphere, but we lack a lot compared to other colleges. Exams are not that tough. 94% students pass.

Other: I chose it because this was the best in my area. I couldn't get admission anywhere, and I don't have local train or metro connectivity near me, making travel really hard. So I had to go with the best option, but this is nowhere near the term best. More practical practise, more interesting framework, and obviously nothing based on mathematics is needed here. Events are organized better, but we can't feel it because they're from different departments. We don't have a place for the entire college to be together and enjoy with everyone. The campus crowd is average. Connectivity is okay.

Decent infrastructure, placements, good facilities, value for money.

Placements: The placements in the college are decent, taking into consideration the highly general course B. Com. Any other college would provide the same placements except some good Sobo ones. Various companies offer roles, and some students get placed, about 30–50 percent.

Infrastructure: The apartments are a little old, but we still have a big campus unlike many other colleges, so it's good. The IT lab is well equipped with excellent computers. The canteen has decent food as well. Wi-Fi is available throughout the campus and anyone can access it. For sports, there is a gymkhana too.

Faculty: There are both good experienced and average experienced teachers. The course I chose is basic because I have other plans to skill up further, so this is base level. Semester exams are decent, not difficult, and the pass percentage of students is good, almost 80–90 percent.

The computers in the lab take time to start, but it's manageable. The college has a small canteen which offers good and hygienic food. The college has all the labs and materials required for engineering. College have a small ground inside the campus which is common for degree, diploma, junior college, and B.Sc. college students. There are medical facilities available in the college. There is no hostel facility in the college, you need to look for a PG nearby.

Faculty: Faculty members in the college are good and very helpful. Faculty members are well qualified, they have good knowledge about their respective subjects, and are always ready to help students and guide them. This college offers a summer internship after the end of every year, which is the biggest highlight, which makes students industry-ready. This college is affiliated with Mumbai University, which conducts the semester exams. Frequent industry visits and field visits are also conducted by the college.
