This college is best for M.Com.
Placements: Overall, jobs are good, with several students having options at the start of hiring. Many are selected for roles in finance, accounting, consulting, data interpretation, and taxation, and many also earn internships during their studies. These awards typically fall into the middle and upper echelons, and many well-established organizations attend the academy each year, providing sustainable opportunities for all departments and industries.
Faculty: Our college teachers are very helpful and experienced, and most of them cover the subjects thoroughly. Semester tests are more rigorous, and evaluation criteria are more stringent than those of many other colleges, which also affects pass rates. While the curriculum is comprehensive and helps with placement, students must work hard to earn an internship. Most of the teachers are excellent, and although academic excellence is maintained, the exams are always difficult.
Other: Many cultural programs and competitions take place on campus throughout the year, and the weekends are often filled with sports, music, and many other exciting events. Students also participate enthusiastically in various academic activities. Beginning in January, our college and several nearby communities offer co-curricular programs such as pottery, music, and similar creative arts.

College and placements, poor infrastructure, heavy pressure, and no internal marks.
Placements: College promises placements just for their reputation. If you are really interested in getting placed, I hope you do not join. 5 percent of students are only able to get placed. Companies that don't have much recognition or the least recognition are conducting recruitments.
Infrastructure: No placement, poor infrastructure, food quality is medium, medical facility is poor, and sports and games are very poor. College only concentrates on education and provides no external support for extracurricular activities. Poor performance in everything and everybody.
Faculty: Teachers are qualified but not helpful. Teaching quality is average, most of them read presentations. The course is industry-relevant, but the syllabus is not relevant according to the industry. Semester exams are difficult and also pressurizing. I hate my college.
