You can take admission here if you want.

Placements: I didn't get any internship because there were no internships in my course in my graduate year. The teachers themselves suggested job placement in the WhatsApp group that we had. Roles offered were accountant, assistant, etc.

All about my college experience.

Best college in Kolkata, West Bengal. Take admission and start your dream.

Placements: B.Com placement depends heavily on your institution and your skill-building during your degree. While top-tier colleges guarantee lucrative corporate offers, most institutions require students to proactively secure internships. To develop highly sought-after professional skills.

A bit dissatisfied with the environment here.

Placements: None of us received any placement. They did not even advertise anything about placements. If we consider the global market, then pharma companies like Wipro and Sun Pharma recruited us as freshers, lab assistants, etc. From our batch, nobody got an internship.

Nice place, peaceful right now since 2026 and offers a great education experience.

Placements: It offers good education and students generally get nice job opportunities. As I have heard from some of the seniors some of them still haven't experienced it yet but in the NAAC grade this college is specified in an A grade which is quite good in terms of education qualification.

Faculty should start teaching in English.

Placements: The college, though it promises placements, has a very low placement rate. Recruiters offer very low salaries. I think the college cannot keep up with its promise of good placements. The college needs to work on its placement offers. The salary offered is very low, around 2.5 LPA.
